Mike spent the first four years of his career at BBC Radios WM and Shropshire. He was also a continuity announcer for Central; he freelanced there from 1993 to 1996. In January 1994, he moved south to work for SSVC (now BFBS) as a self-op announcer and transmission controller.

Mike says: "Having moved south I contacted Carlton and freelanced as an announcer for them from March 1994 until March 1997 then jumped across to the other side of the glass to become a transmission controller for ITV 1 working for LNN. I'd actually started as a transmission controller on a freelance basis in December 1996, then became a staff member in May 1997. To round things up, I stayed with LNN until October 2002. In that time I tried unsuccessfully to move into the newsroom as a director, and my frustration eventually led to finding an opening as a freelance director at ITN alongside my full time job! I eventually left LNN a week before the rebrand to ITV 1 took place and Carlton/LWT disappeared forever."

Later, Mike worked at the BBC as a news director. He then went on to spend almost three years doing the same at Sky News. In 2008, he moved back behind the microphone and now works full-time as a voice-over artist. In addition to voicing TV programmes, he has returned to continuity: for a time at Film24, and on an ongoing basis for History.
