Following qualification as a Chartered Secretary in 2006 Graham became Company Secretary of Peabody, a large London housing association group and grant-making charity with several trading subsidiaries.

During this time Graham led corporate and clinical governance and leadership reviews, provided development programmes for boards and councils of governors, mentored the chairman of a leading acute teaching hospital FT, and advised clients extensively on all aspects of governance and regulatory compliance.

In September 2018 Graham left DAC Beachcroft to establish his own consultancy business, TTP Partners Limited, providing governance and company secretarial services. In addition to his consultancy business Graham is a Governor of The College of Richard Collyer, an outstanding-rated sixth form college in Horsham, West Sussex.
