Build A Department
Ambition
IG wanted to build an internal production and marketing department to take full ownership of their own creative work, having previously used multiple agencies to deliver and execute on briefs. To do this they needed to hire a great amount of talent and build complimentary cross-functional teams that would add value to their business and be well matched to their company vision and values.
The Yellow Cat Solution
Starting this process with a strong track record of making multiple successful hires within IG, we were already ahead of our competition and knew how effective we could be in bringing the right talent into the company. Meeting with senior stakeholders to talk through their hiring plans and the processes involved, we were quick to find exactly the types of individuals they were craving, ensuring it wasn’t just their skills and experience they were bringing to the table. Deep knowledge of their culture and what makes an IG superstar were crucial in building a sustainable and happy department.
Effectiveness
We have been instrumental in bringing high-calibre talent options to IG and the results speak for themselves. Over the 10 years we’ve worked and partnered with IG we’ve placed over 100 permanent talents into their business, from top-level senior creatives right the way through to fresh faced entry-level graduates. Being so intertwined within their business, we are frequently the only recruiters on briefs which is the way we like it.
