Miguel Afonso

Senior Account Director

Miguel began his career in PR in 2010 as a baby-faced Trainee at The Bespoke Group. He quickly rose through the business, with his enthusiasm and tenacious nature for securing media coverage there for all to see. Investing in his client’s business, Miguel’s hunger for success combined with his highly personable character has seen him become a widely-respected PR professional, driving hugely successful campaigns that have achieved mass-mainstream coverage at a global-scale. Whether it’s launching and scaling start-ups, or leading blue-chip corporates, Miguel’s love for the art of PR has enabled him to turn his hand to any industry he’s faced with – although he’ll probably tell you his main expertise lies in manufacturing and renewables.

Miguel isn’t all about work though – his love for travel has seen him set foot in every continent, from the hiking trails of New Zealand to the jungles of Costa Rica, through to the paradises of Indonesia. But it’s arguably his love affair with football and his beloved Arsenal that conquers all. Regularly attending games, you’ll immediately know if they’ve won or lost within the first 10 seconds of a Monday morning. However, jokes aside, Miguel will be the first to tell you that becoming a father to his baby boy was the day he won the real cup.
