Profile

Robbie Miles is a dynamic and charismatic speaker, host, moderator and MC who brings heart, brains and humour and to every stage he steps on. Whether he’s steering high-stakes panels, hosting black-tie galas or wrangling pop-culture superfans, Robbie knows how to read the room and keep audiences engaged, entertained and informed.

A seasoned screen producer and development executive, Robbie has worked in Los Angeles, New York and across Australia on projects for major players including Sony, NBCUniversal, Full Clip Productions, Animal Logic, and the ABC on everything from war epics (Deadline Gallipoli, Danger Close) to comedy/sci-fi series (Sarah’s Channel with Claudia O'Doherty) and underwear commercials. He’s interviewed some of the biggest names in the screen world including Phillip Noyce, Justin Kurzel and Emile Sherman and has moderated panels & hosted events from the AFTRS Digital Futures Summit on Artificial Intelligence and the future of producing, to comic convention panels in San Diego, film festivals here and in the US, and national screen industry showcases.

Equally at home behind the mic at the AACTA Awards or on-air with ABC Radio, Film Mafia and Most POPular podcasts, Robbie blends warmth, wit and whip-smart insight. He navigates complex or sensitive topics with clarity and care, using humour to defuse tension without losing the seriousness of the moment and can shift effortlessly between highbrow and lowbrow depending on the crowd. His experience as an educator and leader at the Australian Film Television and Radio School informs his inclusive and curiousity-led style, always seeking to uncover the gems that make a panel crackle and deliver great lessons for the audience.

Robbie is also a gifted storyteller in his own right and his hair-raising stories of leadership challenges in the screen industry offer hilarious and occasionally jaw-dropping revelations to inspire leaders and team members across all industries.

Also (trivia fans, take note): he’s the 2025 Champion of Mastermind Australia, proving he can think fast, perform under pressure and handle any curveball a live audience throws his way.
