Come to the SUMO side.
We’d be nothing without our team:
#SquadGoals.
Our talented recruitment specialists know how to track down the top influencer marketing, talent management and creator economy jobs and wrestle the best deal for clients and candidates.
But they’re also a fun, down-to-earth and genuine bunch. No catfishing or inflated egos here — you get what you see.
We’re big on training, tech, rewards, culture and equal opportunities at SUMO. Credit should always be given where it’s due, and without different perspectives and backgrounds, the media and entertainment industry would be pretty damn boring. No, thanks.
