Hi, I’m Phil 

A fun-filled, passionate and somewhat experienced live event-host and presenter based most centrally in my home town of Birmingham, West Midlands. However, I love to travel too, so national and international working is always an exciting opportunity.

I love the stage and screen. TV is a fascinating medium of opportunity for the presenter and the viewer. I also love working within Radio, Voiceover/Commercials and Online projects.
In fact, I'm a passionately energetic personality that loves people and making the connection happen!

If you are looking for a Corporate Event or Exhibition Emcee (MC), a Host for your Charity Dinner, Awards Ceremony, or maybe even a Presenter for your Outdoor Stage Event, Opening or Corporate Exhibition, I shall surely bring knowledge, fun, passion, charisma and high energy to the occasion.
A host for many huge branded corporates, or smaller independents, charities and organisations.
Having worked on behalf of HRH The Queen & The West Midlands Lieutenancy, hosting the momentous Platinum Jubilee Celebrations,  all 11 days of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games and most recently King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla's Coronation.

As an Event, PR & Hospitality strategist of PoseEvents  (see also 'About') having a natural sales ability that is delivered with warmth and sincerity; motivates and influences a call to action each and every time.

I embrace my outgoing attitude, easy charm and hosting skills, along with my cheeky Birmingham humour and 'one-liners' to connect with audiences affectionately to make your occasion one to remember!

As a presenter, food & drink fanatic, modest 'home' chef, and orgainser of Food Festivals, I was pleased to have recently become the 'Winner' of the popular Channel 4 show 'Come Dine With Me'.
