Sophie is the Founder and Director of PXL Talent, bringing a wealth of global leadership experience in hiring for the Visual Effects, Animation, and Creative Industries. Her career spans both agency leadership and in-house roles, most notably at Double Negative (DNEG), London. As Global Head of Talent Acquisition at DNEG, Sophie played a pivotal role in scaling the company from a team of 300 to the global leader it is today. She also held senior leadership positions as Global Head of Human Resources and Global Head of PR and Communications, gaining a 360-degree view of the business.

It was during her time at DNEG that Sophie developed a deep fascination with the unique culture of the industry, the interplay of creative and technical minds, and how this dynamic shaped company growth. Recognising a gap in the market for a recruitment agency that truly understood the inner workings of VFX, Animation, and Creative Technology, she launched PXL Talent.

PXL Talent is a global headhunting, recruitment, and talent agency, specialising in VFX, Animation, Creative Content Production, and Creative Technology.

Alongside her work at PXL Talent, Sophie also serves on the Board of Managers for the Visual Effects Society and is an Ambassador for Uplift Us, both organisations dedicated to empowering individuals to build successful careers and committed to fostering diversity and inclusion within the creative industries.
