We put as much work into our relationships as we do into the work itself. Most clients end up as friends. That’s how we like to work.

Crisis communications, reputation management, issues management and media training all run on trust. It has to run both ways. Reputations are on the line, and decisions get made fast.

Wilkinson Confidante, our retained advisory service, gives boards and senior executives ongoing crisis preparedness and reputation counsel.

What My Clients Are Saying

PP

Peter Paradise

Founding Director, Paradise Charnock Hing

Peter is an outstanding PR strategist who combines sharp commercial insight with an exceptional understanding of the media and public perception. As a lawyer, I particularly admire Peter’s considered thinking, professionalism and ability to translate complex issues into clear, compelling messages. His PR instincts are first-rate, and I would have no hesitation in recommending his exceptional talent.

SE

Simon Eldridge

Former Director Corporate Affairs & Government Relations, QER

I engaged Peter to help develop and guide a comprehensive media and communications strategy for QER’s $200 million oil shale processing plant in Gladstone, successfully turning around local community opposition and the scepticism of the Queensland State Government and Gladstone Regional Council. Peter’s insights into the strategic direction required, and the tactical messages and delivery platforms, were instrumental in getting the project approved.

AB

Anne Bryce

Former CEO, Achieve Australia

Peter has always been an approachable, professional and diligent person to work with and well understands working to deadlines from his many years of experience working in the media. I would not hesitate to recommend Peter to other organisations seeking to have a strong strategic advisor.

AM

Andrew McIlwain

Former CEO, Unity Mining

An emotionally and politically charged project, their excellent guidance and execution enabled community engagement and public relations campaigns to be undertaken and a timely response to issues raised, particularly through the use of a variety of social media forums. It was a pleasure working with them.

AG

Andrew and Mike Greste

The Greste family

It was an unimaginably stressful time for our family and Peter’s counsel was a huge help to us and to our parents. Peter was instrumental in helping us assemble a team and work with us to achieve success and get our brother released.

FE

Former Wilkinson Group Employee

Employee, then colleague

Peter’s care and attention to detail is incredible. He’s the only person I know who’s just as interested in a 140 character tweet as he is in an entire communications strategy; it makes him very refreshing to work with and learn from.
