Creative Director – Mid-size Creative Agency

The Challenge

In the months leading up to our partnership. Trigger House was flourishing with new business wins resulting in the need to hire a Creative Director to lead the charge on new client campaigns, thus freeing up their Executive Creative Director to focus on existing clients.

However, Trigger House did not have a dedicated Talent Acquisition team, and the many candidates that had applied for the job lacked the crucial – and very niche – experience developing best-in-class experiential marketing campaigns.

Moreover, this Creative Director would need to spend a few days each week working at the agency headquarters in Portsmouth – a less populated city which made it more difficult to find a local candidate with the right qualifications. To overcome these roadblocks, Trigger House needed a talent partner with a strong understanding of the creative space and deep connections with top creatives.
