Why this seat is hard to fill.

Nearshore agency hiring is not a geography trick. The value comes from senior professionals who already know agency pressure and can work close enough to the US day to keep communication, reporting, and delivery moving.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the senior agency professionals who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. They are known inside their agency and invisible everywhere else.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A live working-call exercise that tests agency judgment under real account pressure.
  • A structured scorecard for clear client-ready output from messy account context.
  • Reference checks with the people who actually managed them, run the same way we check references for our own team.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • You want nearshore leverage without giving up senior agency judgment.
  • The seat touches reporting, communication, and repeatable workflows.
  • You want someone who has already run this seat, not someone learning it here.
  • You want a tool rollout rather than a hire.
  • You need a broad staffing marketplace.
  • You are hiring for overnight offshore coverage.

Compare the seat before you choose the market.

What they said after we placed them.

Curated from companies who hired through Vela and professionals we placed. Their words, not ours.

HireTalent gave us exactly what we needed. They found someone with all the qualifications we were looking for, and Andres has been a really strong addition to our team.
