Co-Chair of BBC Embrace
Philip Robinson is a transformational leader working at the intersection of technology, culture, and inclusion. As Head of Portfolio Performance for BBC Product Group and Co-Chair of BBC Embrace, he champions enterprise-wide approaches that align strategy, architecture, and community to deliver meaningful, inclusive outcomes.
With over a decade at the BBC, Philip has led large-scale change across complex product and technology ecosystems, ensuring performance and people thrive together—not in tension.
Through his frameworks of Socio-Technical Enterprise Architecture, Conscious Commonality, and Least-First Design, Philip challenges organisations to rethink how inclusion is embedded into systems, leadership, and decision-making. He speaks with clarity and conviction about moving beyond performative diversity toward cultures of genuine belonging—where trust is strengthened, differences are valued, and solutions are designed to serve those with the least access first, creating sustainable impact for everyone.
