Kirsty Parkin
Founder and Director
Supaglu founder and director Kirsty Parkin has been finding careers for screen creatives for more years than she likes to count. Beginning her career as a writer somewhere back towards the dawn of time, she began working in creative staffing in the advertising sector before moving into VFX and games training and recruitment. She's seen tens of (maybe even hundreds of?) thousands of portfolios and showreels, and found jobs for thousands of animators, designers, VFX artists, game developers, modellers, matte painters, layout artists, engineers, producers, art directors, compositors - the list goes on.
Kirsty loves seeing great work. She loves working with people to power their careers, and businesses to power their productivity.
Sam Marsh
Games Talent Consultant
Sam is passionate about supporting the games community, helping creative talent find the right opportunities, and occasionally talking in third person. He volunteers every year at NZGDC and mentors a few younger founders in his “spare time”. A lifelong fan of games, he’s equally happy discussing deep Halo lore like the ancient Forerunner military strategies against the Flood (which some people find fascinating and others…do not) or getting lost in a good RTS like Age of Mythology or Anno 117. You’ll often spot him at industry events, sporting his signature baggy hoodie and shorts, usually leaving with having slightly more energy drinks than is probably safe. He doesn’t touch coffee, just because he thinks it tastes like burnt sadness.
TL;DR: Sam is good at connecting people. Which is handy, since that’s literally the job.
