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.

Our vision is to make work accessible and people’s lives better. We do this by disrupting traditional employment barriers - connecting ambitious talent to flexible opportunities with trusted brands.
