“Rice PR is one of our 'go-to’ consultancies for clients focused on the world of work. With an ear on the wider political, media and social agenda, they double down on a deep knowledge of the future of work. This focus has helped us shape serious B2B thinking and create tangible deliverables resulting in client growth. Knowing how businesses really work from a people agenda perspective is a rare commodity, so working with them has been a real string to our bow in supporting on employer brand and B2B Thought Leadership programmes.”

"The world of HR and the complex issues that arise in the workplace can be challenging to define. However, delving into the experiences of those who manage it day-in and day-out adds an additional layer of complexity. That's why encountering an 'outsider' who displays genuine passion and deep interest in our highs and lows is truly refreshing. Sarah is a remarkable cheerleader who effortlessly captures our stories with sensitivity and profound insight. For anyone who seeks support in effectively communicating important issues and elevating their own profile, I wholeheartedly recommend Rice PR.”

“I was first introduced to Rice PR through a feature Sarah’s team had written that truly stood out in a crowd of lots of bland ‘same-same’ content. Being able to spot and deliver a story about real human experience in a B2B market is a skill that is pretty rare and shows how immersed and committed to the issues she and her team are. If you have a story you want to tell on the people involved in the future of work, you won’t find anyone better suited.”

This must all be seen through the prism of the significant pressures global leaders are experiencing. Rice PR has been pivotal in helping us develop a creative, end-to-end marketing and editorial function that delivers to all these areas and more. Working alongside our team to understand how we do business while elevating our brand promise of ‘influential change’, Rice PR has been a great addition to our journey.”

When she worked with me on my project on equity and the future of work, I felt she was driven by a passion for making good things happen. I felt she was on my side - like being in the same team, which makes the difference in being really good. She’s kind, generous, and willing to help others, and knows how to craft compelling messages that resonate.
