Working at Stopgap Recruitment

Stopgap - Marketing, Creative and Tech Talent. 

At Stopgap we have specialised placing great people in great roles since 1993. The first recruitment agency to focus solely on marketing recruitment, we now work across technology, creative, digital and agency roles in all sectors and at all levels.  

What makes us great – and different - is how and why we do what we do. 

Challenging the recruitment industry’s reputation for bad practice and poor service and determined to epitomise a company that truly looks after its staff, we work hard to do one simple thing: to make people happy and fulfilled in their careers today so that we’re inspired to do it again tomorrow. 

We do this by: 

Our human, caring approach. We’re interested, we listen, we understand. 

Our consultants; we have years of experience not just in recruitment but within the marketing and digital space.   

We have sector specialists and dedicated Agency, Creative and Tech teams.   

We’re committed to coaching and supporting our candidates before, during and after placements.  

We work collaboratively, not commission led – we share knowledge, candidates and experience.   

Friendly and informative; we’re lovely people and we’ll keep your updated and communicated to. 

Adapting to specific market needs: graduates to executives, freelance to permanent, in-house to agency, B2B to B2C, traditional to digital, we’ve got it covered. 

What we can offer employers 

We can provide a range of recruitment services depending on your needs, from a full sourcing, screening and consultancy approach to our “Advertise & Filter” service - advertising your role and CV screening.
