Meet Rob: Quick-Fire Personality Insights
Q: Who’s your favourite musician or band?
A: I’m a BBC Live Lounge kind of guy – so long as it’s live and acoustic, anything goes.
Q: Do you have any talents or interests outside of work?
A: I’m a keen fell runner. I enjoy the hills and mountains in the North West of England. There’s nothing better than getting a good audiobook or podcast on and heading out into the fresh air for a few hours.
Q: What’s your favourite food?
A: Japanese – I lived in Tokyo for a couple of years. If it was a bus ride away, I’d be eating fish and noodles every week!
Q: Where’s your number one vacation destination?
A: Asia 100% – I love spicy food and the culture.
Q: Do you have any pets?
A: Three Beagles (they’re more like Chimpanzees!).
Q: What’s your favourite movie or TV show?
A: Game of Thrones.
Q: Who’s your role model and why?
A: Entrepreneurs. It’s a way of life, and you can learn so much from people who’ve already done what you’re trying to achieve. There are too many to list!
Q: Tell us something unusual about yourself!
A: In 2024, I took on the challenge of running the Great Wall of China Marathon and completed my first Ultra Marathon.

A: I’m constantly learning, and as Today Digital continues to expand, I’m excited to embrace the challenge of building a dynamic, fast-growing business with endless opportunities ahead.
Q: If you were a superhero, what would your superpower be?
A: Teleportation – I’d love to travel instantly! As someone who thrives on productivity, eliminating time spent on trains and planes would be a game-changer.
Q: If you could give one piece of advice to someone just starting their career at Today Digital, or starting a role similar to yours elsewhere, what would it be?

A: I’ve been fortunate to receive several business awards, including:
- Young Un’s ‘One to Watch’ Winner (2011)
- Red Rose Medium-Sized Business of the Year (2013)
- BIBAs Double Winner (2012) – Employer of the Year & Small Business of the Year
Q: Is there anything else you’d like to tell us?
A: I have a fear of the sea, so I challenged myself by learning to scuba dive—starting with a night dive in shark-infested waters. Despite that, I still hate swimming in the ocean!
