When you are hiring for a senior PR, Marketing or Communications role, the temptation is to hand it to a big agency and wait for a pile of CVs to land. In my experience, that is exactly how the wrong hire happens.
You deal with a person, not a process
With a specialist recruiter you brief one person and hear back from that same person. There are no handovers, no juniors learning on your role, and no being passed around a team. Every candidate you see has been read and interviewed by me.
Quality over quantity
A big agency is built on volume. I take on a small number of roles at a time, so every search gets my full attention. You get a considered shortlist of people who genuinely fit, not a shortlist of shortlists.
People who stay
A bad senior hire costs a year of momentum and a six figure salary. I place for fit and longevity, drawing on more than thirty years of relationships across South Africa and internationally.
If you are hiring, tell me about the role and I will tell you honestly whether I am the right person to fill it.
