We Move People!
The Talent Boom is a Global Creative and Digital headhunting firm located in 4 continents – North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. We work with some of the worlds leading brands, Advertising Agencies, Fortune 500’s and scaling start ups to make the perfect match.
What makes us stand out?
We’re a boutique and bespoke recruitment agency where we focus on a personalized, pro active approach to make matches with elite talent and leading companies worldwide. We constantly strive to keep the Human2Human element of recruiting alive.
Our Global Recruitment Connections
We were born in 2012, founded by British award winning headhunter, Emily Keyes. The Talent Boom’s HQ was in South Africa and from there, the recruitment firm expanded into Europe, UK and US. The Talent Boom team around the globe recruit at their finest when they thrive on different cultures, countries, challenges and talent.
To date, The Talent Boom has successfully helped companies looking to hire talent in over 50 countries, from US to Japan, across management to C level and for onsite, expat, hybrid and remote positions.
True to our roots, whether you are around the corner from our EU team in Germany, across the street to our UK team in London, or across the pond to our US team in New York, or across the miles in Hong Kong, we will partner with you as your virtual recruitment neighbour to help you find your next superstar talent.
We are a top international recruitment agency with expertise in a variety of sectors, cultures and countries, so we created The Talent Boom to focus on the international creative and digital recruitment market and serve companies that are serious about finding high-end talent.
Headhunting is all about working with people. It’s a Human2Human business that an app can’t replace. We work closely with our clients to find the perfect candidate who is not out there in the market. The majority of talent that we place with clients will not be on a job board or applying for roles. We target them for you.
We’ve made matches with companies such as Audible, Amazon, AKQA, VaynerMedia, Semrush, NBA, DAZN, Innocean and more.

Global Networking & Social Media Recruiting
We’ve created the perfect blend of headhunting and social media recruiting for the past 12 years in order to find top candidates before any one does. As a leading independent international recruitment firm, we don’t find job seekers in the traditional manner. We also love to collaborate with the advertising industry and attend conferences, events as well as be part of creative and business awards as Judges. And because we are a personalized team of headhunters, most of our talent use us during their career – either as clients or candidates & work with The Talent Boom exclusively. Which means, your competitors would be unlikely to come across your new hire, if you worked with us because we have such a solid and select network.
Other recruitment agencies may continue with the old method of using job boards, but we are aware that very few “in-demand” talent would spend time putting their CV/portfolio onto a job board. Also, why pay for a luxury recruitment service if they are not pro-active enough to hunt for the next best talent? That’s where The Talent Boom comes in!
We’re a small team but we mean big business. Our headhunters and talent management team has just the right amount of people to afford the privilege of working hand in hand with top companies around the globe and offering our clients and candidates the best experience for hiring
