Hiring a digital marketer?
You may already be in the middle of a recruitment process and need to cover a gap quickly — or you may simply want help finding the right person from the start. I have worked hands-on with SEO, content and digital strategy for more than 10 years, and I know what the role actually requires. Whether you are looking for an interim solution or want to discuss the job profile before starting a hire, I can step in and support you.
Give me a call on +46 73 965 12 00, and we will take it from there. Whether you have an urgent hiring need or a longer-term recruitment goal, we can solve it together. No unnecessary hassle — just a short conversation to see how I can help.
Urgent need? I can step in right away
Waiting for the right candidate can take time — and in the meantime, you do not want to lose momentum. I offer interim solutions that give you access to an experienced digital marketer who can step in immediately and keep things moving until the right long-term hire is in place.
That way, you do not have to rush a decision or risk being without critical support. It is a smooth and practical way to keep things running without unnecessary complexity, while also making sure the final recruitment decision is the right one.

Common questions, quick answers
Which roles are typically included in digital marketing?
Digital marketing is a broad field, and it is easy to get lost in the terminology. Some of the most common roles include SEO Specialist, Performance Marketer, Content Manager, Social Media Manager, CRO Specialist, and Ecommerce Manager. In some cases, companies need a generalist who can cover several areas. In others, they need a highly specialised expert. It all depends on the business need — and the budget.
How long does it take to hire the right person?
It varies, but with a more traditional recruitment agency, you should usually expect a process of around four to eight weeks if everything runs smoothly. With me, it depends on the role and the brief. I work quickly, I know what I am looking for, and I like solving problems. If the role is highly specialised or the requirements are particularly demanding, it can take longer. My best advice is to have a plan for what happens in the meantime — for example, an interim solution so the work does not stall. I can help with that too.
What should you keep in mind when writing a job ad for a digital role?
Skip the buzzwords and vague requirement lists. Be clear about what the role actually involves — and what you can offer in return. Digital candidates are often in demand and used to filtering out weak opportunities quickly. A direct and human tone usually works better than clichés about “passion for digital transformation.” And do not overpromise if the reality does not match.
Is it difficult to find the right digital talent right now?
Yes, it can be challenging. Many companies are competing for the same profiles, and the strongest candidates are often already employed. That is why it is important to stand out — not only through salary and benefits, but also through culture, flexibility, and growth opportunities. And one more thing: sometimes the best candidates come from places you did not expect.
What is more common — hiring a permanent employee or bringing in a consultant?
Both are common. Many companies start with a consultant to get moving quickly, and then gain a clearer understanding of what kind of competence they need long term. For temporary needs or project-based work, an interim solution is often a smart choice. But if the role is strategic and long term, a permanent hire is usually the better investment over time.
