His grandfather Alfred Todd was a Conservative MP for Berwick-upon-Tweed from 1929 to 1935.

He served for twelve years as a Cambridge City Councillor, spending three years as leader from 1987 to 1990 and five as deputy leader.

He was a managing director of the Longman publishing house from 1977 to 1996. In this company he worked from 1988 to 1992 in industry and public service management, from 1990 to 1992 at Carter Mill and in information technology from 1992 to 1994.
