Background

About Sarah Bryars

I’m a communications strategist, helping organisations to explain complex things simply, developing messages that people can understand and get behind. I advise, run workshops, copywrite, train, and remain guardian of straightforward language and your carefully considered tone of voice. If you're the kind of leadership team who needs to engage, influence and build trust to succeed, then you're my kind of people and I'd love to hear from you- For boards, I facilitate workshops to clarify the organisation’s vision, values and proposition, then articulate key messages to resonate with different stakeholders. This ensures content is aligned with their strategic goals. I create bespoke training sessions for marketing and PR teams, supporting them to hone their skills and build confidence as a team. Recent topics have ranged from "how to create an award-worthy PR campaign" to "asset-based storytelling and language that empowers"- Clients benefit from my decades of delivering PR and communications programmes for organisations, and my own leadership experience as a board director and charity trustee. With a PR career that spans global commercial enterprises, non-profits and the public sector, from professional services to the built environment, I have a bank of strategic and hands-on experience to draw upon. I’ve led the strategy and implementation of communications projects for change of ownership, brand re-positioning, digitalisation, sustainability and social value impact, product innovation, and more besides. Experienced, intuitive and with an exceptional knack for articulating the thoughts and voices of the people I write for, I possess the versatility to apply my experience across internal communications and external relations. People tell me that building trust is my greatest strength, empowering others with confidence and developing relationships, commercially and personally, that stand the test of time.
