Nine months ago, we launched The Talent Times as a LinkedIn newsletter with a simple goal: to say the things that weren’t being said in the talent world. Fast forward to today and with over 5,000 subscribers and growing, we’re doing more than just making noise — we’re building the industry’s go-to destination for news, insight, and opinion.
So it only made sense: The Talent Times is now officially a news site.
Backed by SUMO Talent — the UK’s leading recruitment agency for the talent management and creator economy — the site is an evolution of the conversations we’ve been driving since day one. From digital-first creators and influencer marketing shake-ups, to the shifts happening across scripted, sports, and music, this platform will do what the newsletter can’t: go bigger, go deeper, and go daily.
Why now? Because talent management is changing — fast. New platforms, new rules, and a new generation of talent means the industry needs a place that actually keeps up. The Talent Times will spotlight the trends, highlight the players, and challenge the bullshit — all while celebrating the people behind the scenes building brands, careers, and billion-view moments.
We’re not trying to be the FT. We’re not here to flatter legacy. We’re here to be useful, honest, and sharp. Whether you’re managing household names or helping the next one break through, we want to be the tab you’ve got open.
This isn’t just about headlines. It’s about building something that drives the industry forward. Interviews, op-eds, data drops, job boards — we’re just getting started.
Come see what we’re building.
Welcome to The Talent Times.
