Connecting businesses with freelancers and interim professionals in Communications, digital marketing and sustainability

If you’re not yet ready to hire permanently, freelance and interim professionals can provide the flexibility and expertise you need. At Hanson Search, we specialise in sourcing top-tier interim and freelance talent across communications, digital marketing, and sustainability—helping businesses navigate spikes in workload, maternity cover, or transitions before a permanent hire starts.

With over two decades of experience and an extensive global network of marcoms and sustainablity experts, our team has deep expertise in both the market and interim recruitment. Many of our consultants come from backgrounds in PR, marketing, and sustainability, bringing a deep understanding of what it takes to find the right interim talent that can drive revenue, reputation, and risk management for your business.

Global freelance and interim network in business critical roles

With teams strategically located in the UK, Europe, the USA, and the UAE (holding an ADGM licence), we provide global support, offering market expertise, insights into freelance and interim hiring trends, and guidance on salary benchmarks.

As part of our offering, we can also tap into our sister company, The Work Crowd, a leading global network of vetted freelancers and interim experts. This additional resource enhances our ability to connect you with the right professionals—whether you’re a fast-growing start-up, an established multinational, or a boutique consultancy looking for flexible talent solutions.
