About Hook, Line & Sinker (HLS)
Established in 2019, HLS is only five years old but has quickly established itself as an award-winning PR and marketing agency. Our global clients include SAP, Cisco, United Nations (UNDP), Amazon, Radisson Hotel Group, and many more.
**Our agency by-line is**: 'creative communications for clever brands'. And that is exactly what we do. We provide a range of communications services across multiple platforms and channels for some of the world’s biggest power brands.
Our team comprises PR managers, social media influencers, SEO specialists, graphic designers, copywriters, and news journalists. Times are changing, and so is the era of the 1990s press releases and red-carpet events. We intelligently craft and amplify content across multiple publishing networks. We create content that captures audiences with the right hook, and then we select the best platforms and channels across the best line, to deliver the ultimate campaign sinker.
Agency life and culture
At HLS, teamwork definitely makes the dream work This is evident when entering the office to find our team pictures proudly displayed in the entrance area, our iconic (yellow) office décor and fun social gatherings showcased on our active social media channels. We have agency employee awards and programmes to 'raise the PR-bar' and our standard of work. We also have not one, but two employee events per year (mid-year and year-end), twenty-one days holiday leave, and year-end bonuses.
Feeling inspired? Let’s connect.
