Team Artisan Beliefs
➤ Creatives are changing the world
Today all over the world creative people are transforming everyday lives. We need to continue to expand the opportunities for matching he right creative minds with organisations and opportunities where they can excel. We specialise in creatively focused industries because it is what we love, and we are buoyed by wonder of what creative minds can bring to the world.
➤ Successful creative businesses are needed
In a world that is experiencing disruptive change on almost every font, having access to the best creative talent imaginable becomes even more important. Likewise to have organisations where creative talent can thrive is equally important. We believe that there is a need to assist creative clients to build prosperous and sustainable business so that ‘organisational hotbeds of creativity’ are in place to engage diverse creative talent and ultimately foster their creative craftsmanship.
➤ Optimum means optimum
As advisors, our mind-set always had to be focused on what is the optimum way clients can engage the creative talent they need. Finding the best way means we literally have to not only understand different needs, but that we must also offer different solutions. Flexibility, agility and different possibilities enhance our ability to deliver the optimum outcome. Talent needs for a day through to a lifetime, it is about finding the optimum solution every time.
➤ Honesty breeds trust
Even is it means we miss out on a gig, we will always say it as is. We know if our team are encouraged to disclose sensitive information, to make honest assessments of the suitability of candidates, as well as being fully truthful with our clients, we will build far more enduring and mutually beneficially relationships.Like wise we will always be transparent with candidates on their commerciality. If we feel they are not placeable we will be honest and upfront, guiding them where necessary, to help change behaviours which could pose a barrier to employment.
➤ A creative culture is dynamic culture
Creative cultures are constantly developmental forward looking, Everyone, including recruiters, administration, developers, IT and our external partners must all be forever looking for new ideas and ways to improve what we do. We all need to understand this and love it, everyday within Artisan. The rate of change has accelerated and we need to lead the revolution. We need to be constantly improving. We can never set and forget, or we ourselves will be forgotten – we have to be trying new things constantly.
➤ Our candidate benchmark defines us
Ultimately it is the quality of the candidates we put forward that will dictate our success. Being at the epicentre of a connected community of creative talent where we are perceived as advisor, supporter, facilitator and inspirer is fundamental. In a technology driven world where connection as some level is the norm, leveraging this, but at the same time magnifying the human dimension of what we do, will ensure we thrive.
