Anna Laskaris, freelance brand, communication and PR consultant, Sydney NSW

About me.

I’m a Sydney-based brand communications consultant with over seven years of agency experience across Australia and New Zealand. I specialise in strategic communications, PR, and integrated campaign delivery, blending creativity with operational excellence to deliver impact across consumer and corporate sectors.

My Expertise

I’ve led work for iconic global brands and ambitious regional startups alike, bringing bold ideas to life through multi-channel campaigns and partnerships. From international product launches and executive thought-leadership programs to influencer activations, creative brand partnerships and media famils, I know how to create buzz that delivers measurable results across earned, owned, and social media.

With hands-on experience across multiple markets, from a secondment in Auckland to collaborations with teams in the US, UK, and Southeast Asia, I’ve built the skills to localise messaging, manage complex stakeholders, and keep campaigns aligned to both domestic and global brand directions.

Most recently, I helped scale Acre Agency by building its PR and communications function from the ground up, overseeing portfolio delivery, operations, resourcing, and recruitment. I’m currently delving deeper into the startup ecosystem as part of Startmate’s Launch Club, a pre-accelerator program designed for early-stage founders and operators.

My Sweet Spot

I thrive where strategy meets execution, at the intersection of creative strategy, PR and brand marketing. I’m equally obsessed with the operational backbone that makes it all work: building scalable processes, managing resources efficiently, and creating frameworks that enable repeatable success.

Along the way, I’ve learned that brilliant ideas alone don’t move the needle. It’s the combination of smart strategy, creative execution and operational excellence that turns bold visions into measurable results.

My superpower? Spotting the operational gaps that kill great ideas before they see daylight, then building solutions to close them.

What Drives Me

I’m passionate about connecting people, ideas, and systems so businesses can grow with clarity, consistency and confidence. I lead with authenticity, believing that when people feel supported, trusted and empowered, high performance naturally follows.

Breaking big goals into achievable steps. Bringing clarity to the chaos and connecting brands to their customers. That’s the work I love to do.

 “I believe the best brand & communication professionals aren't just creative strategists, they're operational leaders who build the infrastructure for sustained impact.

I'm the person who can craft the strategy, roll up sleeves to make it happen, then build the systems to scale what works.”
