Narrative Talent

Narrative Talent is a specialist recruitment agency focused exclusively on PR and communications hiring across Australia and New Zealand. Founded on the principle that the right people shape the story, Narrative Talent works directly with hiring leaders and talent to create recruitment searches grounded in genuine market understanding and business context. The agency recognises that great recruitment starts with understanding the full picture: the business being built, the team a candidate will join, and what might genuinely inspire the right person to move. Narrative Talent specialises in both agency and in-house PR and communications environments, understanding the nuanced disciplines within the sector and the critical difference between a matching title and the right fit.

Narrative Talent's approach is built on three core pillars: specialist design, purposeful search, and market intelligence. The agency conducts searches with purpose, recognising that the strongest people are rarely actively looking, so every approach is personal, considered and grounded in genuine reason to connect. Through close, ongoing conversations with hiring leaders and talent, Narrative Talent reveals what salary data alone cannot: what people value, where expectations are shifting, and what makes a move feel worthwhile. For hiring leaders, the agency builds PR and communications teams through critical hires and longer-term talent pipelines, shaped by current salary intelligence, candidate sentiment, and clear understanding of the business being built.

Narrative Talent operates across Australia and New Zealand, with offices in Auckland, Melbourne and Sydney. The agency serves both hiring leaders seeking to build their next PR and communications team and talent looking to make a move that feels like genuine progress. Clients choose Narrative Talent for its deep market intelligence specific to the ANZ PR agency talent market, its understanding of what drives career progression for junior and mid-level talent, and its commitment to honest, confidential conversations that go beyond transactional recruitment.
