Specialist talent, rural location
Expert Insights was growing quickly, but finding ambitious sales and marketing specialists in rural Devon wasn't easy.
The challenge
A story not yet visible
The team's culture and global ambition were compelling, but prospective candidates couldn't see enough of life inside the business.
Culture matters
Experience alone wasn't enough. Every new hire needed to be curious, collaborative and ready for a fast-paced, high-performing team.
The solution
By combining specialist recruitment with employer branding, Konker helped Expert Insights become an employer that talented people could see themselves joining — a joined-up approach to attracting, engaging and hiring the right people.

Employer Branding & Content
Media
We built an employer brand content plan that showed life at Expert Insights and helped potential candidates see themselves as part of the journey.
- A high-impact hero film — “Who are Expert Insights?”
- Five team stories across sales, marketing, data and editorial
- Culture photography capturing collaboration and life at the Devon HQ
- Content for social media and the careers page
“The Konker Media team were great to work with. They came well prepared, made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera, and captured authentic moments that perfectly represent our brand and team culture. Communication throughout the editing process was excellent. Really pleased with the results.”
