Sir Phil is a passionate advocate and ambassador for the creative industries and welcomed the opportunity to share his career journey with students as they prepare to forge their own career paths in the sector. His insights included a reflection of his own career which has seen him create ground-breaking drama series such as Grange Hill, Brookside and Hollyoaks.
Through his promotion of arts and culture Sir Phil has been a driver for positive change when highlighting creative subjects as viable career options. In 2008 when Liverpool was ‘European Capital of Culture’ he used his high profile to build support for arts and culture, not only within Liverpool, but across the UK and Internationally.

Sir Phil’s seminar attracted students from across the whole college including its 14-16, A-level and University Centre cohorts. The ‘Spotlight on Employment’ series links students with a variety of leading figures from across a range of sectors. Speakers engage with students through sharing anecdotes and advice to get them work-ready by helping them to develop the key attributes and skills that employers look for when recruiting.
Hugh Baird College and University Centre offer an array of creative courses such as Visual Merchandising, Graphic Design and Fashion and Textiles and Sir Phil’s seminar particularly resonated with these students.
“It was a real pleasure to be part of Hugh Baird’s College ‘Spotlight on Employment programme, to both spend some time with tomorrow’s talent, and share some of my own industry experiences. College and University is just the beginning of the journey and students should grasp opportunities to engage with creative practitioners whenever they present themselves. I wish them all the luck with their studies and their future careers.”
” Our ‘Spotlight on Employment’ series enhances our well-established Careers Advice and Guidance service in which we strive to ensure our students leave us ‘career ready’.
“It was great for our creative students to hear from such an inspirational figure and someone who is such an opinion leader in the creative industries. This is what the ‘Spotlight on Employment’ programme is essentially about, students hearing first-hand meaningful sector-based advice from major figures working in the Liverpool City Region.
“I would like to thank Sir Phil for taking the time to talk to our students today as they prepare to enter into the world of work.”
