About us

iknowho is a specialist marketing recruitment company connecting in-house and agency marketing teams with top tier permanent, contract and freelance talent. By looking harder, thinking smarter and caring deeper, we deliver results that others can’t – and a recruitment experience that actually works for you. From start-ups to global marketing teams, we work across all industries and partner with a diverse mix of clients.

We understand marketers – because we’ve lived it.

Tired of explaining what you actually need to a recruiter? With iknowho, you won’t have to. Our consultants are ex-marketers who speak your language. With deep industry experience and a consultative, high-touch approach, you’ll partner directly with a dedicated experienced marketing recruiter end-to-end. We support you and add value through every step of the process. Don’t waste time bringing your recruiter up to speed with what makes a great marketer - or the difference between digital and performance. Breathe that sigh of relief knowing you’re working with consultants who just get it.

Well-established talent pools ready for you to tap into

Over 70% of our placements come from our network - not just active job seekers. After 17 years building career relationships and a database of over 50,000 marketers, we don’t just start searching, we already know who’s right. That means faster access to high quality candidates, often before they hit the market. You don’t want a recruiter to simply run a job ad…you want one who already knows who you need (and we may have even worked with them before!)

Solutions designed around your business

Whether you’re hiring your first marketer or scaling a national team, we tailor our approach to suit your unique business needs. With deep expertise across in-house and agency environments, we draw on diverse industry backgrounds to find the right blend of skills. From crafting job descriptions to designing marketing-specific interview tasks - or simply delivering quality talent, fast - we align our service, delivering on what you value the most.

Your brand is our brand

We don’t just list a job – we champion your brand. We take the time to uncover your Employer Value Proposition and represent your brand authentically in-market. We know what resonates with marketers - and how to make your opportunity stand out. That includes delivering an award-winning candidate experience that reflects positively on your brand and helps secure the best talent. There is a reason we can attract candidates to your role that others can’t, it comes down to years of experience knowing what marketers really want, being a trusted brand in the industry and how we present your opportunity.
