Ben Ullmann
Spear’s Review
Ben Ullmann, chief executive of Sanctuary Counsel, leads the firm with a ‘strategic vision’ that has seen its influence and client base grow significantly over recent years. Ullmann brings over a decade of experience in strategic communications, reputation management and speechwriting, having once been director of communications for the late Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks. Additionally, he has served as a managing director at Teneo, where he advised CEOs and boards on everything from M&A to crisis management.
Ullmann tells Spear’s that Sanctuary Counsel has become renowned for its tailored approach to reputation protection, offering guidance to individual clients, governments and corporations facing reputational challenges. The firm also plays a key role in helping clients elevate their philanthropic work, using their public profiles to create long-lasting impact.
His message is simple: ‘If you’re a high-net-worth individual looking to promote and protect your reputation in a way that’s creative, senior-led and bespoke, then Sanctuary is the place to go.’
