About Karla Dawes Press Office

Founded in 2016 by Karla Dawes, Karla Dawes Press Office emerged from a desire to offer a more curated, hands-on approach to public relations in Melbourne, Australia. With a background deeply rooted in the hospitality and lifestyle sectors, Dawes identified a gap in the market for a PR agency that could provide bespoke, strategic communications for brands that value narrative as much as reach. Operating out of its headquarters at 224 Faraday St, Melbourne, Victoria, the agency has since built a reputation for working with a select, discerning clientele across food, travel, and lifestyle industries. Rather than scaling rapidly, Karla Dawes Press Office has focused on cultivating deep relationships with media, influencers, and collaborators, allowing it to deliver targeted results that larger, more generalist firms often cannot.
