Efficient and effective recruitment

How we can help your business

For every agency, it’s fair to say that people are their best assets. So, to be the best, you have to recruit the best. Sometimes that means searching beyond those people who are currently looking and reaching out to the top talent that are so focused on their current job that they will have missed your job adverts.

This is where we can help.

Briefing us is not quick and easy - why should it be? You need to make sure we don't just understand the requirements of a specific role but that we understand your culture and values too. Only then can we present you with a low number of high-quality candidates that you wish to interview - saving you valuable time. You need to feel comfortable that we are able to represent your brand, after all, your reputation is not only important to attracting new clients, it is also critical if you want to attract the best talent too.

Disciplines and skills we support

We work with a range of different agencies across a number of different sectors including Advertising & Integrated, Brand & Design Consultancies, Experiential & Events, Sponsorship & Partnership agencies, Healthcare agencies, Media agencies, and Shopper Marketing.

Our methodology

Whilst there are some general principles to how we work, our service is tailored to meet your needs, not ours.

Getting to know you

of the role.

It's important to invest time in writing a job specification. We can provide you with a template that's proven to deliver results.

Briefing call

We like to meet with the Hiring Team to ensure we are all on the same page, saving you and your agency time further down the line.

Search

Once we have all the information we need; we begin our search and provide you with regular updates of our progress.

Interview process

Why Breathe Consulting?

Collaborative relationships

We take time to get to know your business, helping you plan for the future - seeking out tomorrow’s candidates, not just today’s.

Matching not placing

We believe in finding you the right people for your agency. People who can add value, both financially and culturally.

We get it right first time

Our agency background means we can distinguish team players from those that merely talk a good game.

Long-term, not revolving doors

We aim to find you new team members who will want to stick around - growing their career by helping you grow your business.

Protecting your brand

We offer advice on how to manage the recruitment process to ensure you protect your reputation as an employer, even for those people that you decide not to progress with.

Quality not quantity

Our ethos is 'efficient recruitment', which means we are focused on finding and delivering fewer, better people ultimately saving you time.

We speak the same language

Having worked in both networked and independent agencies for many years, we fully understand every brief.

Pre-qualified candidates, not just CVs

We interview all of the candidates we work with to establish the potential long-term fit for your business.

Old school service, new school tech

We have invested heavily in cloud-based IT and communication systems to make the recruitment process as smooth as possible.

Recommended, not random

We have a huge network of industry contacts. If we don't already know the best people for your agency, we work with our network to find them.

"I enjoy working with Breathe, as Rob and Martin add much value to the process of filling and finding jobs (depending on which side of the table you're sitting). They are approachable, thoughtful, and considered in their approach; proactive and imaginative in identifying suitable candidates for roles, searching hard to bring real contenders into the process. When I've been hiring, I've always been struck by how well they support their candidates, as much as by their support for the process itself."
