Recruiting for the advertising world.

MTN Talent Partners is a recruiting firm founded with deep industry experience in the advertising world. We know good talent because we've been there. Based in Brooklyn, New York, we partner with advertising agencies and in-house marketing teams to deliver exceptional talent at every level — from C-suite executives to freelance consultants.

Our practice is built on two core services: Executive Search and Freelance Talent. For executive search, we operate on a contingency basis, partnering with our clients to deliver incredible talent that will exceed their expectations. We handle C-level, VP, and director-level placements with a precise, culture-first approach. For freelance talent, we represent proven consultants who we've vetted — professionals who have already delivered outstanding results. No guessing or hoping they work out, because they already have.

MTN Talent Partners was founded by two operators with complementary backgrounds. Shaunt Halebian brings 15+ years of experience as an Executive Director of Strategy at leading agencies including 72andSunny, Venables Bell & Partners, and Saatchi & Saatchi. His deep industry expertise gives him a unique perspective when evaluating and identifying top talent. Paul Crosby brings 15+ years of recruiting experience, having worked as a Director and Practice Lead at executive search firms, placing C level to Managers across high-growth companies and Fortune 500 enterprises alike.

Together, they bring the rare combination of creative-world fluency and search-world discipline to every mandate. Whether you need a permanent executive leader or a project-ready freelancer, MTN Talent Partners delivers talent for those building what's next. Our clients include advertising agencies, in-house marketing teams, and the brands shaping the future of creative communications. We operate from our headquarters at 594 Dean Street in Brooklyn, New York, and we respond to every inquiry within 24 hours.
