Why this seat is hard to fill.

Marketing agencies where the work is visible every week and small misses compound into renewal risk.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the marketing agency project managers who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. They are the reason campaigns land on the date that was promised.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A working-call exercise around a campaign delay and a client asking for an update.
  • A scorecard across tool fluency, project boards, reporting decks, Google Sheets, and client comms.
  • Reference checks with the people who actually managed them, run the same way we check references for our own team.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • Your team needs project ownership with client judgment.
  • The founder still has to inspect too many moving parts.
  • You want a senior professional who can stabilize delivery rhythm.
  • You only need a media buyer.
  • You want a low-touch assistant.
  • You are not ready to define the seat clearly.

What they said after we placed them.

Curated from companies who hired through Vela and professionals we placed. Their words, not ours.

HireTalent gave us exactly what we needed. They found someone with all the qualifications we were looking for, and Andres has been a really strong addition to our team.
