Knowledge

 

As The i Group we attract specialists from their field to help and advise candidates in their career journeys and clients to attract the best human resources to achieve competitive advantage.

To follow is a bit about each of our specialists:

STEVE BALL

For 15-years Steve made the impossible happen daily. He started as a wee babe in the world of advertising and had extended periods in varying Creative Services roles in Australia's top agencies. Before stepping off, he held senior regional management gigs, while also holding down grand poobah roles on various committees and associations. He is very glad not be doing that anymore, but very happy to help others who want to do it, and to simply help out from time-to-time.

PRISCILLA HUNT

Priscilla worked in advertising in production and client service roles for 10 years. There she worked on a broad cross section of services clients. She then became a recruiter for 4 years, 2 years at CSP Apple and 2 years at Equatorial/The i Group.

She has a BA. Hons and M. Bus. majoring in marketing. She has been Marketing manager at The i Group for the last couple of years so she is well placed to understand how to get the most from our brand but also how to position our clients' recruitment brands.

ALMA KETTLES

Starting as a suit at The Campaign Palace in 1999, Ron Mather offered her the Creative Coordinator role. Three years later Lionel Hunt invited her to Lowe Hunt as Creative Services Manager. She also ran AWARD with a committee of 19 creative heads from Australia and New Zealand. She has spent 7 years working within agency creative departments and is perfectly positioned to be our fabulous creative consultant.

Since joining she has placed numerous of the top AWARD graduates in their first jobs in ad agencies and is helping them blossom. She continues to place all levels of creatives across Australia and New Zealand. She can be seen at all industry functions usually with a vodka in hand (Grey Goose Vodka in a short glass, dash of lime and lots of ice if you are buying). She is a Scot after all.

PEITA CALLAGHAN

Having spent her teenage years growing up in Hong Kong, Peita returned to Sydney for University. Following her Science Degree she realised the business world was more appealing and completed a Business Diploma in Marketing.

Peita spent 6 years in magazine publishing in production roles and in 2002 decided to move into creative recruitment. She loves the challenges of the freelance desk and has been juggling the needs of designers and studio staff at The i Group for over 4 years. When not cheering the Aussies on at every sport imaginable she can be found in the surf on the Northern Beaches.

JORDANA JACKLIN

Graduating with the Waterhouse Prize for Marketing Excellence from Bond University, Jordana then relocated to sunny Sydney. There she landed her first permanent marketing role in Thaina Box's Noodle Bars. In 2003, she packed her bags to give London a whirl. She landed a role as a consultant with the EMR Group, the UK's number one marketing recruitment specialists. Since returning at the end of 2005, she started with The i Group to run the account service division.

DAVE POLLOCK

Dave hails from Edinburgh, Scotland. He travelled around the world 10 years ago and found Australia, fell in love with it and decided one day he would make it his home. Before gracing our fair shores again he managed to get a Degree in History and a Diploma in Marketing (with distinction), work at Marks & Spencer as Regional Sales Manager and then move to recruitment at IDs in Edinburgh. IDs is a specialist Advertising and Design recruiter too so he was a perfect fit for The i Group. He has placed people for the last 5 years all over the UK in Advertising , Marketing, PR and Digital roles. He brings his knowledge, competitive Badminton skills and sense of humour to The i Group.

MEREDITH COLEMAN

Meredith spent over 10 years in Publishing at Vogue and Fairfax on the Production Manager side. During this time she completed her Marketing Degree and is now putting that into practice running The i learn training division at The i Group.
