| Heading up Phipps creative output Reuben has such a blue chip creative background that sometimes even we can’t quite believe it. One of the leading lights in the PR world he was a director at Joe Public Relations where he was responsible for the spirit and output of an agency that became synonymous with creative campaigns and a fresh approach to PR. He says that his background straddles the issues-driven world of b2b, the product-based approach of technology and the brand-led mayhem that is consumer PR. We say that he knows how to bring something different to the way you think about what you do. And that’s what we and our clients love about him. | |||||||||
