Agency world?
Been there. Done that.
We’ve started, run, grown and sold agencies. And got the scars to prove it. Now we’re taking everything we’ve learnt along the way, good and bad, and applying it to recruitment and consultancy for marketing agencies and brands. We’ll also do our best to deliver it the way we wanted it when we were looking for candidates, to grow our business, or just looking for that dream job.
So, if you’re serious about growing your business, finding the people you need to do it and for a fair price, you need to partner with people who’ve been there…well, you know the rest.
We’re making a necessary evil,
way less evil.
We’re Sam and Greg, the founders of GTT and as our name suggests, we’ve been around a bit. We’ve worked in marketing our whole careers, across creative, strategy, digital, media, PR and social. Between us, we have over 50 years experience (not sure how we feel about that tbh) in a wide range of agency roles, working with a hugely diverse range of clients across most sectors.
We know all about the impact a successful brand and marketing strategy can have. Most importantly, we know that the key driver to success is having the right people, in the right place, at the right time.
Our experience, successes and failures mean that we’re perfectly positioned to help agencies, brands and candidates achieve success. Recruiting your stars of the future should be one of the most exciting things you do. But agencies and brands tell us that using recruiters is often referred to as a necessary evil (ouch), but we don’t think it has to be this way. So, we’re on a mission to change that with a fresh approach to marketing recruitment and consultancy.
“As a small but fast-scaling full-service agency, having the right recruitment partner has been critical, and GTT have been a genuine driver of our growth. They consistently help us find and hire the best talent in the market, and no brief has ever been too much trouble, even when we’re asking them to hunt for unicorns. They are great to work with: professional, friendly and genuinely knowledgeable about our sector. A brilliant partner who make a real difference.”
Mark Robinson – CEO, Wrapped Agency
“Working with GTT was a great experience, we recently found two of our team through them and they have quickly become integral members of our business. Recruitment is always a challenge, and people are everything in business. GTT made finding the right people a whole lot easier.”
Edd Simpson – MD, Ossett Brewery
“GTT were a huge help when I was restructuring and reshaping our SLT. Because they’d been in that position themselves and really understood what the business needed, they brought a level of insight that set them apart from other recruiters.
That firsthand experience made a real difference because they understood the nuances of the roles we were hiring for.
And on top of that, they’re just genuinely great people to work with.”
