In 2005 he became Ofcom's Chief Policy Officer and Chairman of the European Regulators' Group (ERG), handling Ofcom's relationship with European and International political institutions.[3] He also had responsibility for Ofcom's Content & Standards Group, and Ofcom's Legal Group.

Kip Meek was a founder and Managing Director of Spectrum Strategy Consulting, incorporated in 1993 (a consultancy specialising in media, telecommunications, and information technology).

Previous positions include leading Coopers & Lybrand's media and telecoms strategy practice in London, and positions at the Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey & Co and British Telecom.[4]

On 23 July 2010, Kip Meek was announced as non-executive chairman of Project Canvas (now YouView).[5] Meek leads the Board of the venture and oversaw the appointment of Chief Executive Officer, Richard Halton. He stepped down from his role as Director of Ingenious Media.[6] He also left his positions as Chairman of the Broadband Stakeholder Group and a director of the RadioCentre and Phorm.[2][4] Meek left YouView on 7 March 2011 and was replaced by Alan Sugar.[7]
