Email Agency Results
Three Email Agencies. Every Seat Covered.
2 weeks
To fill a Latin America search after 4 months elsewhere
Matias Pirelli, Email Engineers
Every campaign at Email Engineers runs through copywriters, designers, strategists and clients. Matias hired Tanya, a Project Manager from Ukraine, to keep it all on time. Two years later she’s still there. When another provider spent 4 months on a Latin America search, HireUA filled it in about 2 weeks.
$500K
Saved across 7 hires, at about 20% of comparable US cost
Zach, ZHS Ecom
Zach needed four seats on every client account: Account Manager, Copywriter, Email Designer and Klaviyo Technician. He hired all four through HireUA, multiple times over, and built several complete delivery teams.

Where his agency grew, with Anastasia running production
Max Alexander
Max hired Anastasia as his Project Manager through HireUA. The business grew to $40K a month, and she runs production. After a year, he moved her to a direct hire for the long term.
The Problem
More Brands, More Voices, Same Turnaround
You win the brand. Then the briefs start stacking up: a launch, a flash sale, a new flow, twelve campaigns this week.
Every client wants it yesterday, and every client sounds different. One brand is playful, one is clinical, one only ever uses lowercase.
Freelancers can write an email. Few can switch voices three times before lunch and still hit the brand guide. So the drafts come back to you, and you rewrite them.
Your taste is why clients signed. If every send still has to pass through you, it’s also your ceiling. More volume means slower turnarounds or sloppier sends, and clients notice both.
You don’t need more freelancers. You need a team that owns the voice, the design and the build for every brand on your roster.
The right person, in the right seat, at the right cost. That’s what we recruit for.

Why HireUA
Freelancers Fill Gaps. Hires Fill Seats.
Most email agencies try three or four ways to add capacity before they find one that holds.
Alternative
- Freelancers. Quick to start, but your brands compete with their other clients, and you’re still rewriting every draft.
- White-label vendors. Someone else’s team on your client work, with your margin paying for theirs.
- Hiring yourself. Job posts, hundreds of applications and interviews, squeezed between client calls.
- Local hiring. Sometimes the right call, but it can eat the margin that makes a retainer worth having.
HireUA
- Freelancers. A dedicated hire who learns every brand’s voice, design system and approval process.
- White-label vendors. You keep the person and the margin, with Monthly Hire or Direct Hire.
- Hiring yourself. We define the seat, search and screen. You interview the finalists and decide.
- Local hiring. We recruit from 40+ countries and pick the market that fits the role, without lowering the bar.

Where We Recruit
The Right Role. The Right Market.
HireUA recruits talent from 40+ countries. We don’t sell a country. We start with the role and search the market that fits it.
EUROPE
Eastern Europe
Where HireUA started. Strong for design, development and specialist work that needs independent judgment. Visibly’s web designer is from Ukraine, and Monarch Wave Marketing’s WordPress developer is from Serbia.
LATAM
Latin America
Strong US time-zone overlap for client-facing, creative and sales roles. Compound Flows’ copywriter is from Colombia, and about 80% of ZHS Ecom’s team came from Latin America.
ASIA
The Philippines and Southeast Asia
Deep remote-work experience. Excellent value for support, admin and repeatable production work where reliability and consistency matter.
There’s no best country to hire from. There’s a best market for the job: experience, communication, working hours and pay decide where we search.

Adria Ferrier
Founder, Elayne · $578K a year saved
“I think you really take the time to understand exactly what we need, and the caliber of person that we need.”
“We used HireUA to find a marketing manager for our agency. It was hands-down the smoothest hiring process we have ever had. In a few days, we had a curated list of great-fit candidates. We’ve had zero issues with our hire. We will be using HireUA again for our future needs!”
“I run an SEO agency and in July 2023, needed to hire someone to manage client projects as we grew. I reached out to HireUA and within days had potential candidates booked on my calendar and in weeks was onboarding one of those candidates onto the team. That hire is still with us today (a year later) and has been an incredible support to the team.”
“Used HireUA to hire my first employees for my company and they were absolutely fantastic. Helped pave the way for how I operate the business now. If you’re looking for extremely talented overseas employees, dont hesitate to reach of to HireUA. They make the process extremely simple and easy. They literally handle everything from sourcing, interview screening, managing, etc”

Questions
Email Marketing Agency Hiring FAQs
Do you recruit for email marketing agencies?
Yes. Email agencies are some of the clients we work with most: Optima Digital, Email Engineers, ZHS Ecom, Compound Flows, Real Way Marketing, Rehm Copy and Max Alexander’s team. We recruit Copywriters, Email Designers, Klaviyo Specialists, Account Managers and Project Managers.
Which role should an email agency hire first?
Usually the seat that’s eating most of your week. If you’re still rewriting drafts, it’s a Copywriter. If you’re the one chasing approvals and deadlines across brands, it’s a Project Manager or Account Manager. We help you decide on the first call.
Can one hire write in several brand voices?
Yes, if that’s the seat. Range across brand voices goes into the requirements, and we screen for it before candidates reach your calendar.
How quickly can we meet candidates?
Qualified candidates are presented within 5 days of kickoff. Total time to hire depends on how quickly you interview and decide.
How much does an email agency hire cost?
It depends on the role. Copywriters typically earn $2,000–$2,500 a month full-time, Graphic and Email Designers $2,000–$3,000, Account Managers $2,500–$3,000, Project Managers $2,500–$3,500 and Email Marketing Specialists $3,500–$4,500. That’s what the person earns, not HireUA’s fee.
How much can we save compared with hiring locally?
Clients save up to 82% compared with hiring locally. Real numbers vary by role and market: ZHS Ecom saved $500K across 7 hires at about 20% of the cost of US hiring, and Compound Flows saves about $50K a year on a Copywriter.
Can a hire talk to our clients directly?
Yes, if that’s part of the seat. Tell us when we define the role. Client-facing communication, English level and working hours are hiring criteria, not something you discover after the person starts.
Can you find people who already know our tools?
Yes. Tool experience goes into the requirements: Klaviyo and the ESPs your clients run, Figma for design, Shopify for eCommerce. Real Way Marketing hired a Klaviyo Email Designer, and Ecom Iris hired a Shopify and Klaviyo Email Specialist.
Can we grow from one hire to a team?
Yes. ZHS Ecom started with an Account Manager and came back until they had 7 hires. Optima Digital made 3 hires, and each search got more efficient as the partnership grew.
Do you work with larger agencies?
Yes. We’ve worked with companies of up to 1,000 people. For bigger teams we can run recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) for a role or a whole department, take on ongoing searches on retainer, or work alongside your in-house recruiters on the seats they can’t get to.
Do you only recruit from Ukraine?
No. HireUA began in Ukraine and now recruits talent from 40+ countries.
What’s the difference between Monthly Hire and Direct Hire?
With Monthly Hire, you pay HireUA, and we pay and administer your hire, including payroll and compliance. With Direct Hire, you employ the person directly and pay a placement fee of 15% of annual salary, $3,000 minimum.
