PATRICK SOUTHAM

PARTNER

A 35-year PR veteran and ex journalist, Patrick specialises in cut-through corporate communications, media relations and issues and crisis management.


"Corporate reputation's currency is trust. If you don't trust a company, you don't buy from it, you don't invest in it, and you certainly wouldn't want to work for it..."
Patrick has a reputation as a strategic communications practitioner. He consistently helps clients achieve success through incisive and practical media relations, social media, reputation management and corporate communications.
>Patrick spent 6 years as a business journalist, and his understanding and knowledge of the changing media landscape are second-to-none. Patrick honed his communication skills at senior in-house corporate affairs roles at Carlton & United Breweries, Optus, Royal Philips, the Commonwealth Bank, NAB, Visa and ING. He has been involved in managing many high-stakes issues and PR crises and is a trusted adviser to CEOs and senior executives on complex stakeholder management issues.
He holds a Masters in Communication management from UTS.
