A Rare Breed of communications agency.

Creatively

Earned-First

We think creativity should earn attention, 
not pay for it.

We operate and execute in every channel, but our creative approach is always to think earned-first.

Meet the Founders

David Phillips and Will Cookson have nearly 40 years combined experience in PR and communications for the world's biggest brands after meeting at freud communications in 2010. Pangolin was born in 2013 and built from the ground up with two laptops, some grit and a vision to create memorably simple creative campaigns.

 

Born out of the frustration of rigid agency ways of working, David and Will set out to create a rare breed of independent agency that helped clients make

award-winning campaigns without adding complicated agency processes along the way.

 

They empower their team to focus their time on having valuable, high impact conversations with clients vs managing internal processes that exist within the larger agency networks. Less input, more output. Less talk, more walk. With over 100 international PR award shortlists now under their belt, it's clear their approach is working.
