Katy Turner from mrkt Talent: Unlocking Career Potential for Marketing & Product Leaders

Hi, I’m Katy Turner, founder of mrkt Talent and a specialist recruiter for Marketing and Product Management roles across Australia.

I started mrkt Talent because marketers and the businesses that hire them deserved better than an afterthought. Everyone thinks they’re a marketer. And every recruiter thinks they can hire marketing roles. We all know that’s not the case.

In large agencies, recruiting for marketing is usually an add-on — bolted onto a team focused on a specific industry, sales, or corporate services. The result? Neither clients nor candidates get real insight into what’s actually happening in the market. Business leaders don’t get honest feedback on what type of marketer they really need — they get a square peg, square hole approach. And candidates don’t have someone in their corner who genuinely understands their skills and can help them build a career over the long term.

I believe in the power hiring the right marketer has to build revenue. So I built mrkt Talent to fix it.

I love to help Marketing and Product Managers be happier and businesses to thrive by getting recruitment right.

If you are looking to hire, I will listen to your business needs and give you real time market intel to ensure you only spend your time interviewing the right candidates and can do everything possible to secure your number one pick to watch your team thrive and nail your business goals.

If you are looking for a new role, I will help you position your skillset on a killer CV, give you insights to nail the interview and help you find where the right role, company & remuneration package is to give you full confidence in your decision.

Spending over 15 years recruiting for Marketing and Product Management in Australia there is so much to know about this industry and the passionate people who work in it, and not enough recruiters giving this awesome talent the service they deserve.

Finding a new job or hiring the right talent should not be complicated – sometimes we just need someone to listen to us and give us practical, actionable advice on the current market, our offer and how these fit. My mission is to be this person for you.

You control the search, I want to give you the skills, intel and tools to make it your most successful yet.

Every search we undertake is bespoke. We offer more than just ‘exciting’ job specs and salaries. We spend over one-third of our lives at work. My goal is to help you live better by making that one-third of your life the most fulfilling and help businesses hire the right people at the right time to deliver maximum ROI.

I established mrkt to deliver this. Ensuring Marketing and Product Managers meet the right connections at the right time to grow your career.
