When Matias, founder of Email Engineers, first partnered with HireUA, he was looking for an experienced project manager who could coordinate the agency’s clients and internal teams.
2 years later, that first hire, Tanya, remains an important part of the business.
When Matias needed to expand his team again—this time with someone based in Latin America—he returned to us after another recruitment provider spent months searching without finding the right person.
A Hire That Created Long-term Value
Our first placement with Email Engineers was Tanya, an experienced project manager from Ukraine.
Before joining the agency, Tanya had worked with other large Ukrainian agencies and brought valuable industry experience to her new role.
She quickly became responsible for connecting clients with Email Engineers’ internal teams and ensuring that projects were completed correctly and on time.
This is especially important in an email marketing agency, where every campaign requires close coordination between copywriters, designers, strategists, and clients.
Tanya’s commitment, experience, and strong work ethic made her a valuable long-term addition to the company.
At the time of the interview, she had been with Email Engineers for exactly 2 years—and Matias planned to continue developing her role as the agency grew.
“She’s been absolutely amazing. I plan to keep working with her and growing with her in the agency for years to come.”
The New Challenge: Finding Talent in Latin America
When Email Engineers later needed another team member, Matias wanted to hire in Latin America.
Working in a similar time zone to both him and his clients would make communication and daily collaboration easier.
At the time, he did not know that HireUA could also recruit in this region, so he began working with another recruitment provider.
However, after 3 to 4 months, the search had still not produced the right hire. Although several candidates had potential, none fully matched what Matias needed.
As the process continued, he began to question whether the right talent was available. He even considered compromising on his requirements and hiring someone who would need to be trained from the beginning.
Instead, he contacted HireUA again—and learned that we could support his Latin American search.
Finding the Right Person in Weeks, Not Months
After discussing the position with Matias, we launched a targeted search for candidates in Latin America.
Within approximately 2 weeks, we found the right person—completing a search that the previous provider had been unable to finish in several months.
For Matias, the difference was not only the speed of the process. It was also the quality and suitability of the candidate.
“You got the job done that they couldn’t do in 4 months. You did it in 2 weeks.”
After months of considering candidates who would have required some level of compromise, Matias was finally able to hire someone who genuinely fit the position and the agency’s requirements.
Why Fast Talent Acquisition Matters
For an agency like Email Engineers, access to qualified talent directly affects its ability to grow.
An email marketing agency can continue attracting new clients only when it has the right people to deliver high-quality work.
Without an effective hiring system, growth slows down and potential opportunities may be lost.
As Matias explained, agencies often have stronger client acquisition systems than talent acquisition systems.
Even when new business is available, they cannot scale if they have to wait months to find the people needed to support those clients.
“It’s critical to have a good partner that you can rely on to find good talent—and find it fast.”
By reducing the hiring timeline from several months to approximately 2 weeks, we helped Email Engineers avoid further delays and move forward without lowering its standards.
The Results
Through our partnership, Email Engineers achieved:
- Two successful international hires
- A project manager who has remained with the agency for 2 years
- An experienced team member who coordinates clients and internal teams
- A successful candidate sourced from Latin America
- A hiring process completed in approximately two weeks
- A result Matias described as 5 times faster than the previous provider
- Greater confidence in the agency’s ability to scale without compromising on talent
A Long-term Recruitment Partnership
Our work with Email Engineers demonstrates that a successful placement should create value far beyond the initial hiring process.
The first hire, Tanya, became a trusted long-term team member who continues to support the agency’s daily operations.
When a new regional requirement emerged 2 years later, we were able to adapt the search and help Matias find another strong candidate.
“I would absolutely recommend HireUA to email marketing agencies and marketing agencies in general.”
With the right recruitment partner, agencies do not have to choose between hiring quickly and hiring well.
Our goal is to help companies find qualified professionals who fit their requirements, support their operations, and create the capacity for sustainable growth.
