Founder & Principal
Rebecca Puddy
About
Experience forged where the stakes are highest.
Rebecca Puddy brings the judgement of someone who has worked inside government and inside a listed company, and knows how both look from the outside.
Media
Deep knowledge of how newsrooms work across print, broadcast, digital and social, with years of experience shaping coverage and managing high-pressure media cycles.
Listed company
Built the communications and investor relations function at a listed technology company, from the ground up.
Government
Senior government advisory experience, managing high-stakes media and live crises in a heavily scrutinised portfolio.
Approach
Why clients work with me.
Senior from the first call
You work directly with me, not a junior team. The person who scopes the work is the person who does it.
Composed under pressure
Senior government crisis experience means clear thinking when the phone won’t stop ringing.
Fluent in three worlds
Media, markets and government each have their own rules. I understand how they interact, and where they collide.
Focused on outcomes
Every piece of work is tied to a clear objective, whether that is a contract won, a story told well or a risk contained.
“Good communication is not about saying more. It is about saying the right thing, to the right people, at the right moment.”
