Who we are
Hi, I’m Ed. I founded Digital People in 2015, after spending almost two decades managing digital marketing and large-scale digital transformation for brands including HBOS, Lloyds TSB Insurance, Yell.com, Electrocomponents PLC, John Lewis & Expedia.
At Digital People, we’re digital practitioners first.
Our experience gives us a deep understanding of the skills and nuances of digital skillsets, and the knowledge to properly interrogate a candidate’s experience. We help craft the right brief and find the right talent, quickly and efficiently with a focus on quality, not quantity.
In 2016, Digital People won the coveted Best Newcomer award at the Marketing & Digital Recruitment Awards. We were recognised for our “commitment to creating a philosophy based around the candidate experience, and exceptional client service levels”
Why trust us?
Our Experience
In almost two decades as client-side digital practitioners working across B2B & B2C Retail, Financial Services & Travel, we've worked in, hired or managed many of the roles we now recruit for, which gives us a unique perspective of the industry.
Our Retention Rates
In the 7 years since we opened our doors, 98% of our candidates were still in role, or had promoted by the time they reached 12 months. Our focus on cultural fit has enabled us to achieve industry-beating retention rates.
What if it things go wrong?
We focus on culture fit, because if it isn't right on day one, it won't be right in 6 months time. We're so confident in our retention rates that we offer a 12 month replacement warranty, so if anything goes wrong in the first year, you know we have some skin in the game.

Our thoughts on digital recruitment
In the jobseekers’ market digital employers find themselves in today, businesses must do more to retain their strongest staff.
Why the GAFA wish-list of perks designed to remove every barrier between home and work, aren't always what they seem.
Recruitment: a broken industry
Every industry has cowboys - those that discredit their industry. We're fed up with cowboy recruiters and weary of their recruitment rhetoric.
