Overview

HelloKindred is a talent company founded in 2009 that places marketing, creative and digital specialists with employers on a flexible basis, working across the United Kingdom, Europe, North America and South Africa. It concentrates deliberately on marketing and creative roles rather than general technology recruitment, supplying designers, content specialists, campaign managers, digital producers and marketing technologists on contract, project or fractional terms. Headquartered in London, it advertises client vacancies under its own name and pitches flexible senior talent as an alternative to permanent hires in a function where workload arrives in bursts.

Products

Managed Teams
Complete creative or marketing teams assembled and run for a client engagement. It competes against agency retainers by offering much the same capability without the agency's overhead layered on top of it.
hellokindred.com
Fractional Leadership
Senior marketing leaders engaged part-time rather than as full-time hires. Smaller organisations need the judgement of a marketing director without being able to fund one, and that is the specific gap this fills.
hellokindred.com
Digital and Technology Talent
Web producers, marketing technologists and digital specialists placed with client marketing functions. These roles sit between marketing and engineering and are hard for either department to recruit alone.
hellokindred.com
Creative Talent Placement
Designers, art directors, copywriters and production specialists supplied to client teams. Creative skills are project-specific enough that most employers cannot justify keeping every discipline permanently on staff.

Marketing Talent Placement
Placement of marketing and campaign specialists on flexible terms. Marketing workload arrives in campaign bursts rather than evenly, which makes flexible senior capacity genuinely more efficient than permanent headcount.
