In-House HQ Manchester Launch: The Reality of In-House PR

What’s it really like to work in PR in-house? Our Manchester launch event will explore the realities of working in-house – from making the leap from agency life, to navigating internal politics, working within smaller teams, and building influence in organisations that don’t always understand the value of PR.

Through an informal panel discussion and networking, we’ll cover the realities, challenges, and rewards of in-house PR and comms roles and create space for honest insight, shared learning and the beginnings of a supportive in-house community.

Whether you're new to in-house PR, freelancing, or leading a communications team, this is your space to meet like-minded people, learn from real experiences and pick up practical tips you can take back to work.

Join us for an honest and practical discussion, featuring a brilliant line-up of speakers:

• Lydia Howard, Head of Communications UKI, Kellanova
• Laura Harvey, Director of Communications & Corporate Affairs, Auto Trader UK
• Idris Olufemi Olayiwola, Communications Officer, Oldham Council
• Tori Overall, PR & Corporate Communications at ZOE and co-founder, In-House HQ

With special thanks to our generous sponsor and host, Auto Trader UK.
