After business school, Kelly worked as research assistant for Michael Howard in 2004/5 whilst the latter served as Leader of the Conservative Party.
Kelly was then employed in the family business, Keltruck Ltd - a Scania truck dealership based in West Bromwich - serving as marketing director from 2006 to 2009. He is now a paid non-executive director of his father's company.
