MomUp Case Study
Working with MomUp was a game-changer. They truly understood what we were looking for, not just in terms of skills, but culture and values too. We were impressed by the quality of candidates and how well-aligned they were with our needs. It was such a relief to save the time I used to spend weeding through resumes and applications and just be able to trust that qualified, pre-vetted candidates would be presented to me. The MomUp team was responsive, efficient, and treated us like a priority when time was of the essence for quick decisions. MomUp isn't just a recruiter, they're a true partner in hiring.

The hiring problem
David Taylor Digital is a small, established agency that positions itself as a bolt-on marketing team for its clients. For an agency built on that promise, every hire is client-facing capability: the team is small enough that one person meaningfully changes what the agency can take on.
An account manager sits at the center of that. The role has to understand the client's business, translate it for the delivery team, and keep both sides confident, which makes alignment on working style and values as important as marketing skills. It is also exactly the kind of role where an open job posting produces a mountain of resumes, and a busy leader has to find the hours to climb it.
The search
MomUp took the screening process off Stella's plate. Candidates were evaluated not just for account management skills but for alignment with how the agency actually works with clients, so everyone who reached her had already earned the conversation.
Her words describe the difference: qualified, pre-vetted candidates she could trust, presented by a team that was responsive when the decision window was tight.
The result
David Taylor Digital hired Sarah March as Digital Marketing Account Manager in spring 2026. The agency got its hire without the mountain of resumes, and got it quickly enough to move when it mattered.
What agencies can learn
For a lean agency, the hidden cost of hiring is the leadership time it consumes. A recruiting partner who takes screening off your plate, and screens for culture and working style rather than just keywords, returns that time and speeds up the decision without lowering the bar.
