HR Tech & SaaS PR agency

Quick answer

We deliver PR that helps HR Tech and SaaS brands earn attention and authority. Our campaigns connect you with the audiences that matter most – HR leaders, decision-makers, investors and partners – through credible media coverage, thought leadership and digital visibility. Expect results you can measure: stronger brand reputation, higher search visibility and messaging and collateral to optimise your sales team’s efforts.

What is HR Tech & SaaS PR?

HR Tech & SaaS PR is about positioning your business as an expert voice in the technologies that are transforming how people work. It tells the story behind your product – the people, the data, the outcomes – and connects that story with the decision-makers who shape HR strategy and digital adoption.

At Midnight, we combine tech PR expertise with strategic consultancy and a deep understanding of the HR agenda. We use a proven mix of tactics – from proactive media engagement, data-led storytelling and newsjacking to senior leadership profiling – to build reputation and visibility.

And all of this comes with a digital PR edge. Our campaigns are designed to improve your SEO and AI-driven search visibility, ensuring prospects, talent and investors see your name (and key messages) where it matters most – in trusted publications, specialist events and authoritative digital spaces.

Guarantee

Every HR Tech and SaaS client benefits from senior strategic involvement throughout – ensuring your communications are as innovative and data-driven as your technology.

Media landscape

As part of every campaign, we map your audience to the outlets they’re most likely to read and trust. For HR-focused brands, that often includes People Management, HR Magazine, HR Grapevine, The HR Director and Personnel Today (to name a few). For broader SaaS and tech audiences, we target titles such as IT Pro, Computer Weekly and Forbes.

When expert positioning or investor visibility is key, we also target The Times, CityAM, The Telegraph, FT and BBC for national commentary and newsjacking. This tailored media mapping ensures your voice is heard where your buyers, partners and peers are paying attention.

Case study

BCIS – building a highly credible SaaS brand in construction data

When BCIS separated from RICS in 2022, it needed to establish itself as an independent, authoritative data provider to the construction and insurance sectors.

We mined BCIS’s rich dataset for thought leadership stories, issued regular data-led releases, and secured commentary opportunities linking its experts to breaking national and trade topics.

The result: 360 items of coverage, 1.2 billion+ audience reach, national exposure across The Guardian, Sky News, Forbes, The i, Which? and Daily Mail, plus trade recognition in Property Week, Building and FMJ.

BCIS is now recognised as a trusted industry voice – a transformation that earned us a PRCA Dare Awards 2024 finalist spot.
