Rachel McTavish

Rachel McTavish is one of the UK’s most experienced broadcast journalists and live event hosts.

Over the last 20 years, Rachel has worked for I.T.V, BBC, FIVE, GMTV & ITV London and several corporate and foreign broadcasters. Rachel can currently be seen presenting the news on S.T.V.

The result is that Rachel has a diverse range of credits from being on air and leading the ITV News channels coverage of the Twin Tower attacks on 11th September 2001 to playing a pantomime dame at Glasgow’s Pavilion Theatre, for STV’s Five Thirty Show.

Her ability to find the appropriate tone to handle a broad range of stories confirmed her as a regular on Nick Ferrari’s Sony Award-winning breakfast show on London’s L.B.C. and as a stand-in for comedian Fred MacAulay on his popular BBC Radio Show.

Rachel is an adept conference facilitator and awards host – regularly chairing events around the country for Businesswomen Scotland, Women in Finance and The Herald’s Diversity conference where her relaxed style not only puts a panel at ease but creates an engaging experience for the audience.
