Hartas & Craig is a specialist creative recruitment agency, deeply connected with the creative community in Australia and overseas. Our focus is fostering creative careers, helping to grow the two most valuable assets of any business: the people and culture.
Whether it’s a one-off project or a full-time role, we help agencies and creative talent find each other. We pride ourselves on being fair, honest and ethical throughout the process.
The secret of our success is that we look for specifics: the right skills, experience, personality and cultural fit. We genuinely care about relationships. It’s about quality, not quantity.
Our experience within the creative industry is unparalleled. So when we say we understand, we mean it. Just like the industry and its top people, we constantly evolve to be the best we can be. We love what we do and our results speak for themselves.

Testimonials
Thanks so much for all of the work you've done to find us the best place possible. We said from the start that we knew we could trust you and we were 100% correct.
Hartas & Craig is a great recruitment outfit. Their care and attention to detail is something I really appreciate. Corinna takes the time to thoroughly interview each candidate and provides a detailed account to an ECD, citing her reasons as to why she thinks the candidate would be right for you. I also appreciate her filtering. She doesn't just send you anyone, but really sticks to the brief and is very selective and considerate to fit the right candidate to the right role. Her recommendations have led to two amazing creatives who delivered a Cannes Grand Prix as well as a Black pencil. But beyond that two really good mates. I can't recommend Hartas & Craig highly enough.
You're our first stop — of all the recruiters we've ever dealt with, you guys are one of the very few we're happy to work with. We've got a lot of personal contacts in the industry we can call, but we're starting with H&C. So have a look, have a think, and give us a ring. Because we've got our feet in the blocks, and we want you to be the ones who fire the starter's pistol.
Corinna is the best recruiter I've ever worked with, without a doubt. As a new arrival to Australia I was quite nervous (and clueless) about entering the business here, but Corinna put me at ease with her honest and thorough approach. I really appreciated that she actually got to know me and my strengths and didn't rush to put me into the first job opening that came across her desk. As a result of her patience and persistence, we found the right place for me and I'm thrilled.
In a world of LinkedIn, everyone has access to the same information. But in a business where talent is the core our business, sometimes you need to go deeper; to find people who are either hidden, otherwise attached or have been somehow overlooked. That's where Corinna and Annabel come in. Like gum shoe detectives from the world of noir, they dig deep, find sources and chase down leads, all in the pursuit of connecting the right creatives with the right agencies. Beyond that, Corinna and Annabel are true 'people persons' — they really do care deeply and authentically. Corinna is also the only person who is much of a snow skiing geek as me.
Working with Hartas&Craig just comes naturally. Every time I have needed to recruit, or have looked for creative opportunities, I have always reached out to Corinna. She placed me in my first job in Australia, and it has set me on a great path and I am grateful for her help in getting me where I am today. The team are always courteous, friendly and welcoming and you get a sense there's a deeply personal understanding of candidates when it comes to placing them in roles.
