We always encourage looking after your mental health and well-being with our staff. Everyone receives 4 free support sessions a year - it is the employee's choice of who they see. For example, it could be a therapist you've already been seeing, StudioHawk will cover 4 of those sessions a year.

Who wouldn’t want their best friend at work?

Dogs are proven to reduce stress and increase productivity. So as long as your fur buddy is appropriately trained, they are more than welcome to come and hang out!

While we’ve accomplished a lot, there’s always more to do. As a company, we’ve won countless awards in SEO and business, but no matter what happens, we will always be humble and take accountability when we’ve missed the mark.

StudioHawk gives amazing opportunities to those driven and looking to grow in digital marketing. Over my time here, I have learned to manage all types of SEO campaigns and have been given the chance to develop my leadership skills with the development of the Sydney team. I feel very grateful for the opportunity that was given to me and can't wait to extend this to other potential SEO Specialists in the future.

At Studiohawk, I’ve been allowed to hit more goals than I would have expected for myself. Coming from a background with little to no SEO experience, I was able to progress from a junior role, SEO specialist, team leader, and now onto leading the Learning and Development arm of StudioHawk, a passion that StudioHawk was able to help grow and foster throughout my years here. I’ve worked with brands I’m incredibly passionate about from an early stage of my career here. This can be largely attributed to StudioHawk's passion for working with people who are also passionate about what they do.

I came to StudioHawk with a vision of being heard, making an impact, and working with great people. In the time I have been here, all my expectations have been exceeded. I’ve had the opportunity to contribute not only to my direct team but to the whole agency; worked with amazing clients and got great results, but above everything, I have found a bunch of beautiful people who are passionate about what they do, and that for me has been the best of it all.

During my time at StudioHawk, I’ve been given opportunities I never thought were possible for myself. I started as a part-time Receptionist, then stepped into an Office Coordinator role, and was then offered a chance to build up and streamline the recruitment processes as StudioHawk’s first in-house Recruitment Specialist. Having no experience in HR or recruitment, my progression is a testament to the strong ethos we have at StudioHawk of believing in people and giving everyone a chance. Knowing the people I work with believe in me and want to see me succeed has made my time here so special, and I love being able to give that opportunity to others.
