Problems we solve:

Why use a marketing recruitment specialist?

CVs are an inadequate measure of fit

With AI advancements there is an increasing gap between the perception and reality of professionals.

CVs have become sanitized and lack personality. Identifying real talent is harder than ever.

The Fix?

Human engagement and experience.

Our screening is thorough and considerate.

We'll ask the straight questions to ensure alignment but not without care for the individual and their aspirations.

We know everyone's experience has value, regardless if they suit a particular role we have in mind.

Job descriptions only scratch the surface

This stands across many industry sectors, but in the instance of marketing, especially so.

Marketers need to engage with

Purpose
Team
Vision

They are the voice of your business.

No document comes close to the impact of a real, one-to-one conversation

The Fix?

Human engagement and sector knowledge.

Tell us about your business.

What would you love to see?

Why is it different?

What's the growth dream?

Our clients only receive the people that are excited about that too.

Marketing talent is being overlooked

Businesses are becoming much less receptive to professionals with experience gained outside their industry.

The rise of AI has made it difficult for hiring managers to identify standout people who have put effort into their applications.

Limiting to specific industry experience minimises risk.

The Fix?

Understanding the differences in approach to marketing across industries.

In some instances, the learning curve will be too steep for those that don't have knowledge of a sector.

We keep an open mind, know what good looks like, and recommend all marketers that we think our clients would appreciate.

Apathy in the sector

The ambiguity in the sector means there are many instances where expectations aren’t met on both sides of recruitment.

Time and money are wasted, and professionals' confidence can be knocked.

The Fix?

Thorough consultation around culture and expectations.

There is no point in shoehorning someone into a role; it will always be a disappointment.

Our 360 search services also include the opportunity to establish a bespoke 30/60/90 day induction for each hire. We work together with clients to ensure that embedding is as smooth as possible.

Traditional recruitment approaches give mediocre outcomes

There are too many critical factors of consideration for both parties that live outside of a CV or a job description.

Culture fit and working relationships are crucial for these roles.

If HR is the sole point of contact for recruitment

100% of the time, this reduces the quality of response.

If multiple recruiters receive a job spec,

100% of the time this dilutes the attention each recruiter will give to the role.

If generalist recruiters advertise marketing roles,

100% of the time the response could have been better.

Advertising directly?

100% of the time you’ve missed people who’d love to work with you that you’d love working with.

The Fix?

The MRKTSEARCH process is focused, engaged, methodical, and transparent.

It reaches professionals advertising can't.

It gives life to your company story and vision, and we don't stop until the job is done.

And the best part?

Partnering with us helps hiring businesses gain direction, clarity, and renewed belief in their marketing.

Marketing skills vary hugely

Many businesses we work with find interviewing marketers challenging. It is!

There are so many important skills, and no two roles or companies are the same.

Lots of room for oversights.

The Fix

We create interview questions and marking guides for clients who find them of benefit.

This enables a uniform process for all to:

Gain context of the exact contributions.

Scope hard and soft skills.

Understand specific motivations and career drivers.

And compare and contrast effectively.

With AI advancements there is an increasing gap between the perception and reality of professionals. CVs have become vanilla, and identifying real talent is harder than ever.

The Fix?

Our screening is thorough but considerate.

We'll ask the straight questions to ensure alignment but not without care for the individual and their aspirations.

We create a safe and helpful environment for all we speak with. Everyone's experience has value.
