ABOUT ROB PHILLIMORE
Freelance PR consultant and CPD-certified AI trainer, working with B2B tech and enterprise organisations across the UK and internationally.
BACKGROUND
I've spent ten years across PR, marketing and communications, both in-house and agency-side, and now work as an external senior partner to B2B technology and enterprise businesses.
My specialist sectors are space, AI, deep tech and engineering, and much of my space sector work is delivered through Halo PR & Marketing, a specialist space, tech and aerospace agency.
I work with organisations that need senior communications thinking without adding a permanent hire. That usually means fractional PR leadership, a monthly PR retainer or a fixed-fee project for a specific moment, such as a funding round, a product launch or building visibility in AI search.
WHAT I DO
-
Monthly PR retainers across three tiers, Foundation, Growth and Authority, from £2,000 a month
-
Senior PR consultancy and fractional PR leadership for B2B technology and enterprise organisations
-
Media relations across UK, European and international trade and business press
-
Executive thought leadership, LinkedIn content and long-form editorial
-
Category positioning and strategic communications counsel
-
AI search visibility and GEO strategy, including a dedicated audit and citation-building work
-
Campaigns for funding rounds, product launches and major milestones
-
Investor relations, analyst relations and crisis communications as bespoke packages
-
AI for PR training workshops for in-house and agency communications teams
HOW I WORK
Engagements are led and delivered by me directly. Clients work with one senior consultant from first conversation through to ongoing delivery, without an account manager layer or a junior team running the activity.
The consultancy is remote-first, with client work delivered across the UK and internationally. In-person meetings, workshops and events are available on request across the UK, with international travel for consultancy and training considered case by case.
SECTOR EXPERIENCE
Space and aerospace, AI, deep tech, SaaS and enterprise software, fintech, health tech, industrial and engineering, and creative industries.
Each operates in a technical or complex category, where communications has to turn specialist detail into a commercial story that buyers, investors and journalists understand.
AI & MODERN PR
Alongside my PR consultancy, I'm a CPD-certified AI trainer and use tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini every day in live PR work.
Earned media and third-party citations are now one of the biggest influences on how organisations appear in AI search, which makes PR more strategically important than it has been in years.
