From keynotes and after-dinner to awards hosting and Q&As, here’s who we represent for corporate events, awards ceremonies and sports dinners.
A guest speaker booking is a different discipline to entertainment. A conference wants substance. An awards night wants someone who can hold a room of 400 through a long running order. A sports dinner wants stories the audience will still be repeating on Monday.
Here’s who we represent, and what each is right for.
Decades of broad public recognition, from The Nolans through to her long run on ITV’s Loose Women. Coleen brings warmth and an easy rapport with a room, which makes her a natural for awards hosting, Q&A formats, panels and events aimed at a mainstream adult audience. A well-liked booking that audiences are genuinely pleased to see.
A TED speaker, RAF veteran of twelve years and a candidate on BBC’s The Apprentice. Aaron now works with Manchester United’s Academy on its player education programme alongside UA92, helping young players build skills beyond football. That mix of military discipline, business and development work makes him strong on resilience, career change and performance under pressure, for corporate keynotes, after-dinner speaking, mentoring programmes and panels.
Nick has hosted and presented at the top end of the live events industry, commanding crowds of 20,000 and upwards, working the grid at Silverstone F1 and broadcasting on the BBC. He is also a DJ, a singer and co-founder of Belters Bingo, which means one booking can cover several roles across an event: host the formalities, then carry the night.
Because he co-founded a live entertainment agency, he understands events from the production side too, which shows in how smoothly a running order holds together with him on the microphone. Corporate events, awards ceremonies, brand activations and conferences.
An experienced host and presenter with several hundred events behind her, Sarah G works across the premium end of the corporate and brand circuit. Her credits include Formula 1 races, Winter Wonderland and exclusive events at venues including The Shard and the British Museum, alongside brand work and awards ceremonies such as the Women in Tech Awards.
She is also an open-format DJ and producer with international residencies, which makes her a versatile booking for events that want presenting and music from the same person. Corporate events, brand activations, awards ceremonies and VIP functions.
A live event host and interviewer, best known for her “Audience With” theatre shows and for hosting The Two Keepers tour with Neville Southall and Chris Kirkland. Andi is a specialist at the format itself: drawing stories out of guests, keeping an audience with her, and holding a room through a long night. A safe pair of hands for sports dinners, awards ceremonies and any event built around interviews and audience Q&A.
