ROB THORNTON


Live Events
Rob is truly in his element in front of a live audience. Whether it's audience warm-up, a charity gala, an awards night or even a film premier - if there's an crowd to engage, he's all in and loving every second of it!
He's no stranger to hosting events that make a difference. One of his standout moments was leading the Enterprise bi-annual gala for Children in Need at the Natural History Museum, helping raise an incredible £500,000 for the charity. Rob also loves a more creative fundraising challenge - including hosting an "I'm a Celeb" themed charity event (which included a few surprises!).
Since 2023 Rob has presented for Firework Champions, bringing energy and excitement to the competition, which is hosted at some of the UK's most stunning stately homes.
Over the years, he has also hosted live events for a wide range of respected brands, including The Princes' Trust, Guinness World Records, Merlin Entertainments and Miss Great Britain - always bringing professionalism, personality and charm.
Trainer
Rob's passion for public speaking and communication training goes beyond just technique - he genuinely loves watching people grow and discover their own voice. Helping individuals and teams to make a true, lasting improvement is his favourite part of the job!
Most recently, Rob teamed up with TAG Live to create a bespoke presenter training package for a holiday resort company. From design to delivery, he brought energy and practical know-how to help everyone shine in front of an audience.
Since 2021, Rob has also been the trainer for Spark2 Education, working closely with their nationwide team to support them in bringing more clarity, confidence and spark to their workshops. He also regularly delivers future skills workshops that leave students feeling empowered and inspired.
Looking ahead to 2026, Rob is excited to join In2Action as a freelance trainer. With clients including Center Parcs, Go Ape and NCS, it's the perfect opportunity for him to share his enthusiasm for communication, connection and creating brilliant experiences.



Tech
Rob loves consumer tech as much as kid loves exploring a toy shop! Whether it's the newest gadget or a home appliance with a twist, he's always eager to get hands on and see what it can really do.
In 2025, Rob joined Samsung as the lead presenter for their global Train the Trainer rollout. Distributed to retail trainers worldwide, the series explored the latest Samsung SmartThings features and how they can elevate life in a connected smart home.
From 2020 to 2024, Rob was the lead presenter for tech retailer Currys, fronting content that showcased the newest and most exciting tech hitting the UK market. His enthusiasm, natural curiosity and clarity helped bring even the most complex features to life for viewers.
