We’re proudly boutique yet trusted by some of Australia’s most respected organisations. Our size is our strength: agile, responsive and closely aligned to every brief we take on.
We listen carefully, move decisively and tailor each search to deliver lasting impact. Unlock the advantage of partnering with a firm defined by insight, agility and commitment to your success.

We connect you with top talent in marketing, media, and communications.
We uphold professionalism, respect, and ethics in every interaction.
We value clear communication and keep you informed at every step.
We listen and build lasting relationships based on shared knowledge.
The first step in recruitment is simple: understand.
That means stopping, listening and hearing what matters most to you, the employer. Before offering advice or talking solutions, we make space to hear your business need, your challenges and your ambitions. It is about listening first and speaking later.
This is how we hope to earn trust and build clarity. By learning from what we hear, we can connect you with marketing, media and communications talent who fit not just the role but also your culture and goals.
Our clients in marketing, media and communications come to us for more than appointments. We provide clear-eyed advice and act as a trusted extension of their leadership team.
Our clients value our expertise and what we bring to the table, including:
Our reputation rides on how we represent yours. That is why Hope & Glory engages job seekers with professionalism and respect, protecting your reputation while sourcing the strongest marketing, media and communications talent.
Recruitment is never just about filling a vacancy. It is about how your brand is seen in the market and how job seekers experience your process.
We represent your brand with integrity, ensure people feel valued, and look for cultural as well as professional fit so every hire strengthens both your business and your standing in the market.
When you partner with Hope & Glory, you gain more than access to exceptional talent. You gain the assurance that we are working to protect and enhance your reputation at every step.
Our recruiting strategy has been enhanced by technology over the years, but human interaction is still at the centre of everything we do. We keep in close contact with talented professionals at every stage of their career. Whether they’re primed for their next challenge, or simply open to a discussion, we remain a trusted partner in their story.
One of Australia’s biggest food companies faced mounting regulatory scrutiny, shifting government policy and growing public expectations around sustainability and community impact.
Without a dedicated voice in political circles or a coordinated external affairs strategy, the business risked being reactive rather than influential.
A mid-sized superannuation fund was competing in a crowded market where brand visibility and member growth were critical.
With rising competition from larger funds and ongoing regulatory change, the business risked falling behind without stronger marketing capability. The absence of a dedicated leader to drive brand strategy and acquisition left growth ambitions vulnerable.
A newly created government department was tasked with driving major reform and improving citizen trust.
With ambitious change, heightened public expectations and multiple portfolios to manage, the organisation needed a strong communications function from day one. Without this, the risk was inconsistent messaging and missed opportunities to build credibility during transformation.
Our commitment to giving back.
We’re dedicated to positively shaping our industry and community. Among others peak bodies, we support the Melbourne Press Club, IABC and CPRA, championing integrity, innovation and connection across marketing, communications and media – and helping create a more informed, engaged and inclusive professional landscape for all.
