Bradshaw was selected to replace Anna Lo as the lead Alliance candidate for Belfast South in the 2016 Assembly elections, winning election with 9.1% of first-preference votes. In the 2017 snap Assembly election, she was re-elected with 13% of first-preferences. She currently serves as the Alliance Party's health spokesperson and, in 2020, was appointed Assembly Private Secretary at the Department of Justice to support Minister Naomi Long.

Bradshaw contested the 2010 general election for the Ulster Conservatives and Unionists. In October 2010, she resigned her Ulster Unionist Party membership, later telling the Belfast Telegraph, "I just couldn't stay in a party that's sexist, homophobic and sectarian so I resigned." She cited comments made by Ulster Unionist leader Tom Elliott, who said he would never attend Pride or a GAA match, as well as her treatment in a selection whereby members had questioned her ability to be an Assembly member as a working mother.

In November 2010, Bradshaw joined the Alliance Party. She first took public office when she was elected to Belfast City Council as a representative for the Balmoral electoral area in May 2014.

Following her graduation, Bradshaw spent a year in Sheffield working in market research, before returning to work for the South Belfast Traders Association. After three years, she took a position as an economic development officer with the South Belfast Partnership Board. In 2003, she became the director of Greater Village Regeneration Trust, where she remained until her election to the Assembly in 2016.
