It fuels our work through our team, our DEI Bursary and our #HarrisHelps Initiative. As one of only 35 member agencies of the PRCA, we adhere to the highest standards of regulation, excellence, and ethics.
To help brands communicate with honesty, creativity, and cultural relevance, by shaping conversations that influence audience behaviour, championing diverse perspectives, and future-proofing our clients reputations through strategic, insight-driven communication.
The heartbeat of Harris PR is our people. Our team culture manifests through how we support and recognise our team members, through our remote and flexible working policies and our commitment to ESG policies.
Our #HarrisHelps Initiative spotlights a charitable or not-for-profit organisation each month with a financial donation and promotion to our network. We are dedicated to using our skills, voices and our channels to make a positive impact on the world around us. Over the years, we’re proud to have worked with dozens of charities and not-for-profit organisations across a large number of fundraising and awareness campaigns, and this initiative presents an opportunity to focus on charities that may not be on your radar. By making financial donations, and shining a spotlight on organisations and the work they do, we feel we can make a real difference in a tangible way.
Each month YOU can nominate an organisation for #HarrisHelps below:
Our Harris PR DEI Bursary in partnership with the Public Relations Institute of Ireland (PRII) and Open Doors Initiative opens pathways to employment within the industry to those from under-represented backgrounds. We established this initiative to help safeguard the future of the PR industry in Ireland and to provide a legacy for the years ahead. Our industry thrives on diverse perspectives and experiences, and as Ireland continues to evolve into a more inclusive nation, so too must the PR industry. At Harris PR, we are committed to investing in the next generation of talent and have a strong track record of supporting those new to the profession and encouraging others to consider it.
Following two successful candidates coming through the programme since 2024, 2026 marks the third year of the Bursary. Click below to find out more.
In January 2026, we set out to establish a clear benchmark for where the PR industry in Ireland currently stands in terms of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Harris PR commissioned bespoke research from iReach Insights capturing both employer, employee and job seeker perspectives, across PR agencies, in-house communications teams and other services industries to compare and contrast experiences.
This report provides an in-depth analysis of DEI within Public Relations in Ireland, drawing on insights from industry leaders from the Public Relations Institute of Ireland (PRII), Public Relations Consultants Association (PRCA) and Open Doors Initiative (ODI) and real personal testimonies from individuals of under-represented backgrounds seeking to work and progress within the profession. It explores hiring practices, mentorship, training and workplace culture, offering an honest reflection of where we are today, and where we need to go.
A truly inclusive PR industry should be visible from the outside in, through leadership, meaningful action and a consistent commitment to equality.

Alongside the Public Relations DEI report, we worked with Open Doors Initiative (ODI) to develop a practical DEI Toolkit for Employers designed to support PR agencies and organisations with in-house communications functions to embed inclusion across their operations.
The toolkit provides a clear roadmap for hiring teams to make job applications more accessible, improve recruitment processes and foster a more inclusive workplace culture, from entry-level opportunities through to leadership.
Our aim is not only to benchmark the current state of DEI in Public Relations in Ireland, but to equip employers with tangible actions that will help shape a more representative and inclusive future for the industry.
