Tracey Parker

My expertise lies in all areas of Creative & Design, Artwork & Production and Creative Services, and I work with clients and candidates within agency and in-house across the UK.

I have 18 years industry experience (12 years in marketing agencies, 6 years in creative recruitment)

I work on junior through to director level opportunities and with people who add value in their thinking and their craft. I also support undergrads kick start their career, through University, College and Birmingham Design Festival partnerships.

During my advertising years, I registered with BTB as a candidate and when they were looking to recruit from the industry, I put my hand up and I’ve not looked back. Every day I get to use my knowledge and experience from my agency days in helping me understand the needs of my clients and candidates. I understand the importance of great working culture, and I love helping people find a new role they are genuinely excited about and that truly helps their career.

“Working with Anna and her team at Beyond the Book has been, and always will be, a fantastic experience. Anna and the guys ALWAYS go above and beyond what I ask them for - giving me insights, suggestions, and inspiration on projects - not just some of the best candidates I've worked with... which is no accident either, as they align our way of thinking with candidates who work in a similar style - PERFECT for the creative sector.”

“Emma is quite simply a superstar! She has represented me as a freelancer for many years now and it became very clear very quickly that she has a definite passion for what she does. I love every conversation I have with her - she is incredibly personable, yet equally professional, her industry knowledge is second to none, her passion infectious, her help and advice freely given, and her feedback brutally honest. If you are a creative looking for work, or a company looking for creatives, I recommend Emma all day long, and I defy anyone not to be buoyed up and spurred along by her seemingly boundless energy and positivity.”

“Before you get a candidate from Michelle you can rest assured that 2 things will happen! You will get a detailed overview of skillsets and she will have spent the time making sure that any candidate arrives prepared. Michelle imbues the core values set out by Anna at BTB in that they care about what they do and have detailed knowledge of the Digital Market. Michelle is personable and very effective in what she does. I would recommend Michelle and BTB to anyone looking for quality candidates to any business.”

“Having worked with Anna, Kaisa and the team at Beyond the Book for a number of years I can honestly say how professional, accommodating and reliable they all are. I have used them to supply freelance cover and have also been on their books myself. From both sides of the fence, I cannot recommend them enough. They are always my first port of call for Permanent and Freelance positions.”

“BTB are the best recruitment consultancy I have ever encountered as a candidate in the Marketing industry. The two words I would use to describe them are 'thorough' and 'authentic'. They take loads of time to understand the individual's skill set and personality, subsequently matching them to the most suitable openings, always providing communication and sound advice throughout the journey. I am really grateful for having encountered these guys and would unquestionably recommend them above anyone else if you are on the lookout in the Midlands region.”
