About Us
JPR is a full service PR consultancy based in Belfast which works for some of the most innovative and influential organisations on the island of Ireland.
Our relationships in the media, in politics (at Stormont, Westminster and Brussels) and in the corporate world are unrivalled in the local market.
The company was founded by John Laird in 1976, making it the longest established public relations agency still in existence in Northern Ireland.
Today JPR is owned and managed by Managing Director, Jane Wells, and Director, Joris Minne.
We are multi award winning and have twice been named Northern Ireland’s PR Consultancy Team of the Year.
All of our team members participate in the CIPR’s Continuous Professional Development scheme, helping us maintain the very highest professional standards.
We are the only UK agency with two female CIPR Fellows (Jane Wells and Rosemary Allister); and the only UK agency to have had four regional CIPR Chairmen (John Laird, Jane Wells, Rosemary Allister and Chris Harrison).
Team members Kathryn Kirk and Sarah Weir were amongst the first in Northern Ireland to undertake and complete the prestigious CIPR Diploma.
We continually innovate in order to ensure our clients receive the very best advice and service available. This website and our continuing work in the areas of emerging and social media are part of that ongoing process.
