Founder & Principal Consultant
Candice Thompson built Thompson & Co Collective around a simple truth: agencies shouldn't need a full-time senior hire to deliver enterprise-grade recruitment marketing and employer brand strategy. With 15+ years advising Fortune 50/500 organizations—including oversight of $15M+ in annual recruitment media—she brings strategic depth that strengthens delivery quality and outcomes, not just output.
Her work sits at the intersection of employer brand, talent strategy, and performance marketing. She's partnered with CHROs, TA executives, and agency teams on the work that actually moves results: EVP and claims proof, narrative consistency where candidates use AI to evaluate employers early, media accountability, and candidate journeys built to convert.
Candice operates as a trusted extension of your team—embedded enough to protect quality, senior enough to hold the strategic thread. Behind the scenes or client-facing. Your call.
Based in Lake Norman outside Charlotte, she supports agencies and in-house teams nationwide. Outside of work, she's usually mapping out her next destination, hosting family and friends, or getting outdoors with her Goldendoodle, Jillian Rae—who has strong opinions about pace.
