As well as working on blue chip natural history documentaries, he has produced independent award-winning programmes, including being selected as a finalist for the Jackson Wild Media Awards 2022. This was for his most recent independent documentary Valley of the Bears, a film on human-bear conflict in the Bella Coola Valley, British Columbia. 

Alongside Rob’s broadcast work, he has always had an interest and passion in conservation and charity projects, both commercially and non-commercially with non-profits such as Project Seagrass and Windrush Against Sewage Pollution.
