Talent and staff augmentation
Talent and staff augmentation means adding dedicated specialists to your own team, without recruiting or employing them yourself. The Performative provides vetted designers, developers, media buyers, content and support specialists who work your hours, use your tools and report to you — while we handle hiring, payroll, equipment and performance management.

Talent and staff augmentation FAQs
How is this different from your other services?
With our managed services, we own the outcome and run the work. With staff augmentation, the specialist works inside your team and takes direction from you — we handle everything around them.
How quickly can someone start?
Typically within 2–4 weeks, depending on the role and seniority. For common roles we can often move faster.
What hours will they work?
We agree hours that overlap with your team. For UK clients, a good part of the working day overlaps; full UK, US or Gulf hours can be arranged.
Can we interview candidates first?
Yes. You meet the shortlisted candidates and choose who joins your team.
