I help social, digital and creative agencies hire the right people across Asia and beyond. UK-trained, Asia-based, and fully focused on non-UK teams.
About Me
I work with social, influencer, digital and creative agencies across international markets. Trained in the UK and now based in Asia, I act as an extension of your team rather than just another recruiter sending CVs.
I take on the hiring work so your internal people can focus on delivery. Whether you need one person quickly or a whole team built over time, I find the right fit and get it done.
I work exclusively with non-UK teams across APAC, ANZ, South America and the Middle East. That focus is intentional. It means I actually know the market.
What I Cover
From influencer to performance, creative to strategy. I have an active network across all the core digital disciplines.
Campaign Highlights
Some of the briefs I've delivered on. From big sporting moments to global brand campaigns, the common thread is getting the right people in fast.
Ear to the Ground
Ear to the Ground work with EA Sports, The Premier League and NBA2K. I supported them with freelance and permanent hires across London and Manchester for this campaign.
Sphere Digital
Six months in at Sphere Digital, I won the Frasers Group account. Within 24 hours we had freelancers on the ground in Germany supporting social content and influencer activations.
Ogilvy
Jumped in to support Ogilvy when volume was high on their Coca-Cola account, and again when they won Samsung. When teams need backup quickly, that's where I add value.
1000Heads
Supporting 1000Heads across their French and German teams. Now embedded with their Berlin office after placing multiple people for their international account roster.
Copa90
US hires for the Copa America campaign and the FC26 launch. Football, culture and the right creative talent, delivered across the Americas.
Multi-Agency
Halpern (Dove/Unilever), United Entertainment Group (Visa), MSQ Group (Under Armour), Seen Connects (eBay and John Lewis), McCann Studios and Social Chain (SharkNinja), 7C3 (Sainsbury's).

Tom was quick to understand the brief, our culture, and presented quality candidates fast. His role has expanded with us and he is now supporting our Berlin team. I have no hesitation recommending him.
I highly recommend Tom for his exceptional skills as a recruiter. Over the years he has consistently gone above and beyond to connect me with great contracts at prestigious global brands. His ability to understand my goals, match me with the right opportunities, and support me through the process is unmatched. If you want a recruiter who delivers, Tom is your person.
