Gaia

Enhanced

We’re on a mission to take the stress and complexity out of modern hiring - and bring clarity to an industry flooded with noise.

Our experience runs deep

We’ve been working in social and search-based recruitment since 2017, long before it became standard practice. You may have known us as Socially Recruited.

In 2024, we brought together two complementary forces. We acquired soccialy, specialists in education recruitment marketing, to expand our market reach. That same year, we rebranded as Gaia — a name that reflects our evolution into an all-in-one recruitment marketing solution.

Together, we’ve built Gaia to combine targeting, creative, and data into one seamless experience. We’re not a tool, and we’re not an agency. We’re the strategy and execution layer modern hiring teams need to succeed.

Where it all began

When we started in 2017, most employers weren’t even thinking about using social media for recruitment. There was no targeting, no strategy, and definitely no tracking.

Our Co-Founders, Ben Keighley and Gareth Thyer-Jones, saw an opportunity to do better for both candidates and hiring teams. So they built it.

What started as a bold idea is now a recruitment marketing engine that runs campaigns across 11+ social and search platforms, strengthens employer brand, and cuts recruitment costs.

We’re fixing these big recruitment problems

Simplifying job applications

Our mission is to make it as easy to apply for a job, as it is to buy on Amazon. Candidates apply quickly and easily, giving employers a wide range of diverse candidates for future growth.

Modernising recruitment methods

Employers are using outdated methods. Candidates are in short supply. Candidate experience is poor.

Easier talent attraction

We exist to fix this. To bring on a new era in recruitment. Making talent attraction easier. Making jobs accessible for all.
