We recently celebrated our Companies 25th Anniversary and we invited Tom to be part of the event. We’re so glad we did as Tom brought to the event energy, entertainment and professionalism. Tom’s communication before the event was great and he made the evening so much easier for us especially with his ability to host and to put people at ease. From his hosting of the event to the entertainment he provided after the meal, he was an absolute hit with our guests and I would very highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for good fun and clean entertainment at their corporate events, you won’t be disappointed if you do!

Once described by Miranda Hart as “Such Fun,” Tom has built a strong reputation as an outstanding and trusted corporate event emcee & performer, with audiences ranging from 200 – 2000 in number.
His work has featured on BBC TV and Radio, and a full-page article in The Times Newspaper. Formally a presenter on Konnect Radio, Tom is currently writing his first book, ‘Live Well, Dream Big, Laugh Often’, which explores how to live with purpose, take bold action, and create joy in everyday life.
Over the years, Tom has had the chance to spend time with several of his comedy heroes, including Milton Jones, Joe Pasquale, and Al Murray. He counts these moments as pivotal, learning from some of the most established and respected names in British comedy. Their advice and example continue to shape his own work both on stage and off.
Tom is known for his ability as MC / Entertainer to quickly build rapport with audiences of all kinds. His warm, upbeat and clean style of comedy makes him a safe pair of hands as your choice of corporate event host, suitable for family audiences, and TV appearances alike.

FAQ’s FOR CORPORATE EVENT HOSTING
How does Tom host a typical awards night
Tom is flexible to the needs of your event but here’s how he would generally work at an awards ceremony: Welcome/Opening Performance (15-20 mins) – Packed full of laughter, tricks & audience participation to kick things off. This enables Tom to build outstanding rapport – the perfect transition into the role of corporate event host.
What tricks will Tom perform?
It depends on the event but you can be assured of big laughs, wow factor & audience participation. Whether it’s swallowing a fully inflated modelling balloon, flipping spoons into cups, phoning a random mobile number for a card trick, or throwing a glass of water around his head, every routine is designed to engage the audience without the risk of offence or discomfort.
How long is Tom available for on the day?
Tom arrives 2-3 hours prior to the event starting time. You then have his full attention until his role is complete. This allows plenty of time to discuss the running order, logistics and any last minute changes to ensure everything flows smoothly on the night. Tom will also attend a tech rehearsal to work with your AV team and ensure everyone is happy before we kick off.
What types of events do you cater to?
Tom is a seasoned awards host and corporate emcee, known for energizing fundraising galas, annual dinners, conferences, and product launches. He is also an acclaimed comedy magician, blending laughter and audience participation into every event.
In addition, Tom is the co-founder of The Office Magician, a game-show style team-building experience that can be booked on its own or combined with his hosting and performance services.

Do you provide entertainment for international events?

Does Tom require an autocue?
Not at all. Tom is always prepared with a printed script. Tom has seen autocue systems fail moments before the awards presentation, so if you are looking to save budget, Tom is familiar and well prepared with a good old paper script! (Plus, it’s much easier to edit on the fly if needed)

Head of Fundraising at Oasis UK
We invited Tom to run a session at our team away day, and he absolutely delivered. It was part magic show, part quiz, part hands-on activity. All wrapped up in 90 minutes of high energy, good humour and real connection.
Our team includes people in a mix of roles, many of whom work remotely. We were looking for something to bring us together, help us reflect on a successful year, and have a bit of fun. Tom nailed it.
Everyone was involved, laughing, guessing, joining in. There were moments we’re still talking about days later. One trick in particular left us genuinely speechless.The session was polished, professional and perfectly paced. I’d highly recommend Tom if you’re looking for something a bit different that still feels thoughtful and well run. A great way to bring a team together.
