HIRING SOLUTIONS FOR STUDIOS & PRODUCTION COMPANIES
Every way to hire.
Built around your studio.
Studios come to us at different stages with different needs. Some want to post a role and move fast. Others need an experienced partner for complex, senior, or high volume hiring. We have built our solutions around this – so you can choose what fits right now, and change it as your needs evolve

Contingency Recruitment
your specialist talent partner for complex & senior hiring
Some roles need more than a job post. When you’re hiring for a senior position, building out an entire department, or navigating a production ramp-up with tight timelines — that’s when having an experienced team in your corner makes the difference.
Whats included
EXTENDED & FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS
Beyond the brief. Built for how studios really work.
For studios that need more than a single hire — whether that’s ongoing talent support, deep market insight, or an embedded team that feels like your own. These solutions sit between a job post and a full search, and can be combined or scaled as your needs change.
talent mapping & market intelligence
Before you hire, understand the landscape. We provide in-depth talent mapping and market insights so you make informed decisions on salary benchmarking, talent availability and competitive positioning — before a single brief is written.
flexible in-house support
Short to mid-term embedded talent support — ideal for production ramp-ups, parental cover, or when you need experienced hands quickly without a long-term commitment. We place experienced talent professionals directly into your studio for as long as you need them.
STRATEGIC SEARCH & SELECTION
DAX brings over 20 years of in-house Creative Tech experience to every search. We’ve worked inside the studios, we understand the craft, and we know the talent market at a level that generalist recruiters simply can’t match. We work as an extension of your team — not as an external agency firing CVs over the fence.
