The Indie List

Based in Dublin, The Indie List operates as a marketplace connecting businesses with independent marketing professionals rather than delivering campaigns directly under its own name. It works with enterprises and agencies across Ireland that need marketing support on either a project or long-term basis, drawing on a registered pool of freelancers, contractors and consultants covering search and social, content, design, UX/UI, advertising, market research, public relations and related disciplines. The team behind the platform itself is small, in the 1-10 range, and its role is to manage the connection between client and freelance talent rather than to staff work internally. The process starts with a client submitting a project brief through a booking form describing the work required; The Indie List then identifies relevant and available specialists from its talent pool and contacts the client to progress the hiring. Roles filled through the platform span areas such as SEO and search specialists, copywriters, UX/UI designers, art directors, e-commerce strategists, communications and media planners, account and project managers, and marketing consultants, including fractional marketing arrangements. Engagements can be structured as short-term projects or longer contracts, with pricing intended to be cost-effective compared to traditional hiring. Freelancers can also register directly through the site to be considered for available briefs and to access ongoing work opportunities.
