Thompson & Co Collective provides employer brand strategy, recruitment marketing, candidate experience, HR consulting, attraction diagnostics, and AI visibility support for organizations working to strengthen talent attraction and hiring performance. We work with organizations that need clearer messaging, stronger recruitment performance, better candidate journeys, and tighter alignment between what the brand promises and what people actually experience.
Our work spans strategic advisory, fractional support, and day-to-day execution. Some clients need help diagnosing what is breaking across brand, hiring, and candidate experience. Others need embedded support to improve recruitment marketing, strengthen employer brand, or bring more structure and clarity to talent-facing work. We do both.
What shapes our perspective is where the work has lived: inside enterprise teams, across agency environments, and throughout the broader talent ecosystem. That range matters because some of the old playbook still works, and some of it no longer does. We help clients know the difference—and respond with clearer strategy, better governance, and decisions grounded in evidence.
We stay close to the work, build from diagnosis before recommendation, and define measurement early so progress can be understood over time. Project-based, ull-service or fractional, the goal is the same: thoughtful support, honest perspective, and work that holds up in practice.

Our Story
Talent attraction has changed. Most organizations are still running the old playbook. Some of it still works. Thompson & Co knows the difference. We’re senior practitioners fluent in employer brand, recruitment marketing, and candidate experience - and in what AI changed about candidate behavior, where your narrative lives now, and what governance requires. Full-service or fractional. The support you came for, and the insight you didn’t know you needed.
