Connecting design
studios with creative
excellence
We take pride in developing partnerships with clients, built on trust and understanding. People are busy, so we rely on the fact that they know where we are when they need us.
A considered and hands-off approach as well as our ability to place great designers that fit has enabled us to build an enviable little black book of long-term clients.
These relationships are the reason why we do what we do.
We have worked with Dan for at least a decade, following him as he switched agencies and now into his own venture. We continue to work with him for his patience, sensitivity, deep understanding of our business, and the ever-changing and increasingly hard-to-define design discipline
Dan Beckett - Head of Art & Partner, The&Partnership
Josef was fantastic in helping us find the perfect candidate. He’s a pleasure to work with and truly understands our needs and culture, which made his support incredibly valuable.
He provided the right fit for us, focusing on quality over quantity in candidate selection.
The entire experience was a solid 10/10
Barbara Baraldi - Mother London
I have known Dan for many years. He genuinely understands our business and needs. Not only does he find the right fit for projects, but he also finds super talented designers/thinkers and good humans. It’s always nice knowing he is invested as much as we are and truly loves design.
Writing this for a recruiter is odd and something I would never do, but Dan is a different kind of beast...
Jim Bletsas - Head of Design, Lucky Generals
Dan is a pleasure to work with and is always willing to go above and beyond to help fill the role, despite the fact we’re very particular about the type of person we want. We’re a close group and Dan gets our culture but also has a real eye for talent. He’s given us the very best designers and support, no matter how unreasonable the timelines (or lack of a brief). He’s always our go-to when we need someone
Paul Knowles - Head of Design, adamandeveddb
If you are looking at quality of individuals rather than quantity, Dan Poole is your man.
Over the years he has understood the quality of designers we are looking for and more importantly he understands our culture.
I cannot recommend him highly enough
Carolyn & Kingee - Founders, King Henry London
Dan’s always my first port of call. Quality over quantity is what you get. He takes time to understand the brief and the talent required, and has consistently nailed it. He recently helped us find our new Head of Design, as well as successfully filling other pivotal senior roles. He’s also a very nice chap and a pleasure to work with. The benchmark of a great recruiter
Mark Taylor - Design Studio Director & Partner, BBH London
