With over 26 years recruitment experience across digital, marketing, creative and tech, we have successfully partnered with brands and agencies alike helping them build and scale teams, facilitate positive change & increase staff retention. We believe recruitment should be a partnership and recognise that every business is different and has its own unique culture and challenges.

At Major Players we work with network agencies through to small independent ones, across all disciplines, working in close partnership with our clients; covering all levels of agency growth roles across permanent, freelance and contract roles.
Major Players are committed to closing the pay gap and creating a fairer, more equitable society for all. In 2019, we introduced our Earn Your Worth initiative, where we made a commitment to no longer ask our candidates or to divulge their current or previous salary information in a bid to cut the gender pay gap.
Major Players are knowledgeable and engaged. My consultant is friendly upbeat, honest and approachable. They deal well with ever changing briefs, requirements, timelines and budgets. They are honest about challenges facing, candidates and landscape and do not chase or pester but there if needed. Major Players generally have a personal and focused approach to recruitment.

They told me they would call back and discuss further, but they never did for nearly 2 months. I called 3-4 times, and they kept telling me, "We are busy. We will call back in a couple of days". How they treated candidates were extremely irresponsible and hugely disappointing. I also felt they might be descriminating candidates somehow. As good reviews are all from certain group of people.
And now over 4 months passed, no sign of engagement and they don't even respond to my message. It is very dissapointing. I have a impression that that they don't accept non-birth-natives or ethnic minority?

Back in 2018, I've been invited to meet one of their advisors. I got positive reviews about my portfolio. I've been encouraged to set up a limited company. And nothing afterwards. My mails got ignored. Maybe 2-3 mail exchanges in the past 3 years.
Last week an Associate Talent Partner sent an email asking if I'm still freelancing and told me there is a 'booming' demand. He wanted catch up. I answered and told him I'd be happy to talk on the phone and what a surprise! I got ignored again.

I joined MajorPlayers at the end of 2019 as freelance graphic designer. Since that time I was the only one emailing and asking if there are any jobs available. At some point my emails were ignored completely, which is unprofessional. Overall, I spent my time of trying to join them and effort in chasing, which brought me nothing. I totally understand that there was pandemic going on, however it has been over for several period of time. Wouldn’t recommend even trying to join them !

Lisa was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She helped me reconstruct my CV to align with the job description requirements and before I knew it, I had the first interview for a job. Lisa was the perfect coach throughout the interviewing process and provided all the support needed when asked. I secured the job of my dreams and I can only thank Lisa for her hard working, experienced and constructive guidance. Thank you once again, Lisa.

I had the pleasure of working with Lisa to get my current role, and found her to be on the ball, extremely responsive, and on call (almost!) 24/7. She was great to work with and helped get what ended up being quite a protracted interview and onboarding process over the line. Would definitely recommend.

Major Players is undoubtedly the most unprofessional, inept, useless recruitment company I've ever encountered.
Connected with a number of its employees on LinkedIn where they share daily freelance roles they're looking to fill. From the outside, it looks fantastic. However, upon trying to apply, that's where it all falls apart. As a freelancer with a packed CV and a portfolio of work with several global brands, you'd think I'd have no problem getting their attention and landing a job? Wrong.
Every attempt at trying to apply for freelance roles has been unsuccessful. Emailing, direct messaging

Major Players are a great agency to work with. Very professional, friendly and supportive for both freelance and permanent roles. Aimee Norris is excellent, always enthusiastic, super creative and talented in her approach to finding the right roles for the right person.

As a freelance Motion Designer I have been working with Major Players for almost 2 years now and I'm very happy with the both the frequency and the relevance of the work they find for me. The team overall is excellent. Aimee Norris is my main contact and she has been brilliant at finding projects which suit both my experience and potential. I've also enjoyed working with Georgina Bailey, Tamsyn Hedges & Leila Salomon on a few things. All-round a great consultancy to work with. If you're decent they'll keep you busy.
