Rebrand success with project expertise

Following a recent acquisition, a software company needed to refresh its brand identity to align with its new strategic direction. This included updating a wide range of creative assets across digital and print platforms. The company required an experienced project manager who could oversee the rebranding initiative, coordinate with internal teams and external vendors, and ensure that all deliverables met tight deadlines.

Robert Half worked closely with the client to define the scope of the project and identify the specific skill sets required for success. Our recruiters quickly sourced and placed a seasoned contract project manager with a strong background in creative services and brand transformation. The candidate brought a structured approach to the project, helping the company streamline workflows, manage timelines, and maintain consistency across all creative outputs.

By facilitating clear communication between stakeholders and ensuring alignment with brand guidelines, the project manager played a key role in launching the rebranding campaign smoothly and effectively.

The partnership with Robert Half enabled the company to execute a seamless creative transition while meeting all project milestones. The rebranding initiative was completed on time and within budget, saving the organization both time and money. The quality of the work and the professionalism of the project manager exceeded the client’s expectations, ultimately leading to the creation of a permanent role for the contract professional. The company continues to benefit from the enhanced brand presence and operational efficiency established during the engagement.

Fast hire fuels creative team momentum

A national furniture retailer had a long-vacant junior designer role that was becoming a bottleneck for its creative operations. When a new digital creative director joined the team, one of their first priorities was to fill this critical support position quickly to maintain momentum on key marketing and branding initiatives.

Robert Half’s creative and marketing recruitment team immediately engaged with the client to understand the role’s requirements and team dynamics. Within hours, we presented a qualified candidate with relevant retail design experience and strong technical skills. A virtual interview was scheduled the same day, and the candidate was hired within 24 hours.

Our ability to act quickly and strategically helped the new creative director stay focused on broader team priorities while ensuring the right talent was brought on board.

The rapid placement of a skilled junior designer enhanced the team’s productivity and allowed the creative director to redirect their attention to strategic initiatives. By streamlining the hiring process and eliminating delays, Robert Half saved the organization valuable time and resources. The new hire integrated seamlessly into the team, strengthening collaboration and contributing immediately to ongoing projects.

The client praised the speed, precision, and professionalism of the recruitment process.

Visual content boosts e-commerce sales

An e-commerce company was looking to elevate its digital presence by enhancing the visual quality of its website and Amazon product listings. With growing competition in the online retail space, the company recognized the need for professional photography and video content to improve brand perception and drive conversions. However, they lacked in-house creative resources and needed a flexible solution that wouldn’t require adding permanent headcount.

Robert Half partnered with the company to identify the right creative talent for the job. Our recruiters sourced and placed a contract photographer and videographer with experience in e-commerce and product storytelling.

Working directly with the CEO, the creative professionals helped establish an in-house studio setup, enabling the company to conduct monthly product shoots efficiently. This setup allowed for consistent, high-quality content creation without the overhead of a full-time team.

The partnership with Robert Half enabled the company to significantly enhance its digital presence through professional photography and video content. The improved visuals contributed to increased customer engagement and higher sales, while also strengthening the brand’s consistency, credibility, and authenticity across platforms.

By providing contract talent, Robert Half helped the company scale its creative output without long-term hiring commitments. The client now relies on Robert Half as a trusted partner for ongoing creative project needs.
