Why Liminal?

Liminal is a great agency to join when you are starting out in financial services PR. From day one, you’ll work on genuinely complex briefs across some of the most interesting areas of financial services, taking ownership of tasks and building your role around what you enjoy.

Having a real voice at the agency is integral to how we work, and to developing your confidence and expertise. Collaboration on strategy, expanding your skills, and being trusted to represent the agency, whether on client meetings, coffees with journalists, or at events, are all part of life at Liminal.

As a member of Fincom Alliance, the pan-European network of independent financial communications agencies, there is also exposure to work across Europe, not just the UK.
