The people behind the promises

Nick McDonald | Founder

After a successful career both here and overseas with awards at major festivals, Nick saw the opportunity to start a recruitment business that genuinely specialises in the creative field.

He knows what a CD looks for having been one. But understanding the skill set is just part of the puzzle. Nick uses his extensive array of contacts and depth of experience to help good creative people find careers. He truly understands “fit” and always sees candidates as people not collateral.

Nick’s industry involvement is extensive, with a seat on the Deakin Advisory Board, 8 years on the MADC committee, lectures, mentoring and tutoring at Award School.

 Let him find you the talent he’d hire if he was in your shoes.

Sally Wilson | Partner

Sally knows the creative side of the business and the business side of the business. After 10 successful years as a Graphic Designer and Art Director in Melbourne, Sal spent 10 years in agency account service in Melbourne and London.

She genuinely understands how much better your business is, when you’ve got the right people in it.

Some of the people we’ve worked with

  • Nick understands Melbourne creatives like no other in Australia, perfectly matching talent to culture and consistently uncovering the hidden gems from in-market and around the world. If you want to know who’s around in Melbourne, or who’s silently returned to market, there’s only one recruiter to work with.

  • Anyone can sift resumés, finding the exact fit is a much harder thing

  • Who better to judge creative folios than someone who’s been there

  • “If I was lost in the bush I’d want Nick on the job. There’s no-one better at finding people. ”
