About
Longshaw Advisory was founded in Q1 2025 following 20 years spent working across national journalism, in-house, and in-agency throughout Africa, Central Asia, Europe, North America and the GCC region.
Operating from Sheffield, South Yorkshire and London, UK, clients range from startups graduating from academic incubation, to growth organisations prioritising investment communications, and critical companies that have operated for more than 100 years, leading in sectors our world depends upon.
Clients use Longshaw to build, promote and protect business reputations with strategic campaigns driven by measurable outcomes.
Campaigns are unique and proprietary to clients. They involve perfecting messaging, proactive media relations across traditional press, digital, LLM and search, and ensuring essential press, investors, and influential stakeholders understand why and how you’re changing the world.
