Dylan Hartley is a legend of rugby, making his name immortal as he captained and played as a hooker for Northampton Saints and England. Captaining the Saints through their most successful period in their 140-year history, he led the side to the club's first-ever Premiership title and went on to captain England on a world record-equalling run of 18 test victories.
Two Six Nations winning campaigns followed, including Grand Slam glory. Capped in 2008, his international career spanned a decade until an injury in 2019 forced his retirement.
He finished as the country's most-capped hooker with 97 test caps. Dylan is England's 2nd most-capped player of all time. Now a presenter for BT Sport, Dylan also finds time to give inspirational keynotes and is prepped and primed to inspire you, too.
Dylan brings unparalleled leadership experience from captaining both Northampton Saints and England to historic victories, demonstrating resilience, strategic thinking, and the ability to inspire teams under pressure. His journey from the rugby field to a successful media career showcases adaptability and the power of effective communication, valuable lessons for any team or business. Booking Dylan as a speaker guarantees insights into building a winning culture and the importance of teamwork, drawn from his extensive experience at the pinnacle of international rugby.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
