Our relationship with talent management and marketing agency, Creative Collective Agency, began when the CEO and Co-founder needed to engage a new Talent Manager. As the agency grew, they were looking to strengthen their talent function and required external support to access higher-quality candidates.
Founded in 2021, Creative Collective Agency (CCA) is a growing creator agency operating in a highly competitive and fast-moving market. With a small but ambitious team, their success depends on the strength of their talent roster and their ability to attract new creators and commercial opportunities.
At this stage of growth, every hire has a significant impact on the direction and scalability of the business. They needed to onboard a new Talent Manager to accommodate their growing workload when they worked with our specialist influencer marketing recruiter.
As the agency expanded, they needed to introduce a dedicated Talent Manager to drive new business through talent acquisition – sourcing and securing high-quality creators for their roster.
Creative Collective Agency had been attempting to secure this new hire for several months through a different recruitment agency but were not receiving the right calibre of candidates. They needed to engage a specialist recruitment agency with the niche market knowledge to access the right talent.
Our specialist social media and influencer marketing recruiter took an insight-led, highly targeted approach to the search:
They acted as a strategic partner throughout the process, leveraging our Advise, Attract, Develop methodology by consistently sharing insights on the market, candidate availability, and strategies to secure top talent. When challenges arose, particularly around candidate criteria and flexibility, we worked collaboratively to adjust and refine the approach.
We successfully placed a Talent Manager into the business, growing the team from three to four employees. This strengthens Creative Collective Agency’s ability to attract and manage talent and positions the agency more competitively within the creator economy
The appointment represents a key step in building a scalable foundation for future growth. We have since continued to partner with the business as they continue to expand their offerings.
Throughout the briefing process and onwards, 3Search totally got the candidate that we were looking for, and ensured that only the right ones were put forward due to our specific parameters. Their communication throughout was amazing, and they were invaluable in sharing with the candidate our agency culture and approach. I'd highly recommend them and will most definitely be working with 3Search later on for future employees.
