Ad/Marketing Execs Planning Zero Staff Cuts, But Tepid Hiring Too

The good news is marketers and ad agency execs do not plan to eliminate staff in their organizations over the next six months. The bad news is they don’t plan to add many either. Those are the findings from a semi-annual poll of marketers and agency executives released this morning by exec recruiting firm The Creative Group.

Among those planning to hire, the No. 1 role is talent in content marketing, followed by brand management and digital marketing.

Media services ranks in the middle of the new hiring demand index, with 17% of those respondents citing plans to add media personnel.
