The Market

Tripp Associates specialises in the media, entertainment, communications, and information sectors, and we have a strong track record in corporate communications roles in both the private and public sectors.

Media

In the ten years we have worked as headhunters, media has changed dramatically. We have worked at the cutting edge of convergent media and e-commerce as well on magazines, newspapers, books and broadcast media.

Entertainment

We apply our unique methodology to fill key roles in the games, film, music and live entertainment industries; contact us for more details.

Communications

In all its forms: corporate communications, PR and publishing agencies, telecommunications, and so on. Through our partners, we have excellent coverage of the advertising and marketing services sectors.

Information

We have recruited senior figures throughout the market research and business information sectors - including managing directors, research heads, and directors of sales and marketing.

Corporate Communications

From entire media relations teams and heads of PR, to internal publications directors and intranet managers, the team at Tripp Associates have years of experience in the sector.

The Positions

We have unparalleled experience in editorial and creative roles at a senior level. On the commercial side of the business, we have recruited directors and managers across all disciplines.

Editorial

Judging by the awards they've won, we've placed some of the most successful editors in print and online media. And our editorial directors, art directors, and production editors are pretty good too.

Creative

It is not our job to second-guess your taste, but we do need to understand your vision. Then we can identify those key drivers that will make a creative genius perform within a commercial environment.

Directors

Whether you need directors with financial, sales, marketing, operational, IT or general management skills, we can target and approach the best players to take your business forward.

Managers

Depending on the level of person you require, we can track down the best people to work with you. We'll let you know if any role is too junior for us to be effective: just call us to discuss.

The Locations

The founders of Tripp Associates have lived and worked overseas, and have recruited across the continents. During our careers, we have made placements in the UK, Europe, Asia and the US.

UK, Europe, Asia and the US: While we are London-based, we have made placements around the world. We run the research process from London and fly out for interviews. It's both effective and cost efficient.

The Approach

Flexible and client-driven, we aim to become your partners in recruitment. We will tailor our approach to meet your needs, and will work as closely with you or as distantly as you require. Your choice.

Flexible

Every option and service is available to our clients; executive search, advertised selection, interim management, freelance. Let us know what you want. And we offer a flexible pricing policy to meet your needs.

Client-driven

We will continue to update and modify our working practices based on client demand. If we don't offer the service you need, we will talk to you about how we might create it. We know how frustrating it can be when recruiters don't listen to you.

Your Choice

At the end of the day, it really is your choice. We do not believe there is a better service out there for your sector. Your choice: tell us how you wish us to work, and we'll help however we can.

Who we are

Between the founders, we have nearly twenty years' experience as headhunters, and have each recruited senior people in all disciplines. We all trained and worked in the media, communications or information sectors. And we share the dedication to quality and delivery that defines Tripp Associates.
