Originally a stockbroker, Will joined Newsnight as economics reporter then became Editor-in-Chief at The Observer. More recently he published a review into fair pay in the public sector. In speeches he sets out the cultural and policy changes under way – and his agenda for reform. He sees no return to business as usual. So long as Government isn’t too wedded to austerity, Will believes inflation and transformative innovation will trigger sustainable recovery.
