Career

Bertin worked for Cameron during his time as Shadow Education Secretary, and for Liam Fox as press secretary.[2]

In 2005, Bertin became Deputy Press Officer for Cameron.[2]

In 2011, she was paid £25,000 by Pfizer to work as a researcher for The Atlantic Bridge, a now-closed charity run by Fox, while he was shadow health secretary.[3] She was the sole employee of the charity, and worked with Adam Werritty, the executive director, but according to the Fox, she did not work in any health role.[3][4]

By August 2013, it had been announced that she would be switched to Director of External Relations, with Graeme Wilson of The Sun taking up her old role.[5]
