BrandTalent Search

Retained Search·Recruiting·Fractional Leadership

Marketing and creative leadership, found by someone who's built the team from the inside. Independent retained search, recruiting, and fractional talent acquisition for corporations, agencies, and growing businesses.

Three ways to work together, matched to the need — not a one-size-fits-all model.

Retained Search
Exclusive, full-cycle search for Director-level and executive marketing and creative roles.
Recruiting
Full-cycle placement across the marketing and creative org chart, scoped to the role and priced accordingly.
Fractional Leadership
Senior marketing or creative leadership on a part-time or interim basis — without the full-time overhead.

Built for companies of every shape hiring marketing and creative talent.

Corporations
Building out an internal marketing or creative function and need senior-level hiring support without an in-house recruiting team.
Agencies
Staffing client work and recurring project-based roles, with a partner who understands the pace and pressure of agency hiring.
Growing Businesses
Don't want a full in-house hiring function and aren't an agency — just need the right marketing or creative hire, done right.

An operator's perspective, not just a recruiter's.

After 25+ years building and leading a $4.3M national talent acquisition firm — partnering with 3M, Target, Polaris, Medtronic, Cargill, and UnitedHealth Group — I've launched BrandTalent Search to bring that same experience to companies as an independent practice.

I've sat on both sides of the table. I didn't just recruit talent — I ran the company, owned the P&L, and built the culture that made those placements work long-term. That perspective shapes how I evaluate candidates and advise clients today.

Let's talk about your next marketing or creative hire.
