About the Company

We are immersed in the Tech industry, allowing us unique insight into this everchanging market. Due to our personal networks, built up over years of networking within the industry, we can unearth the best talent, as opposed to the easiest to find.

We make the recruitment process as simple and pain-free as possible for both our candidates and clients. For recruitment to be truly successful it needs to be a business partnership. We invest time in getting to know the organisation that we are partnering with, spending time onsite with the hiring manager and team to truly understand the technical competencies and required cultural fit to make the hire an absolute success.

Likewise, we spend time in person or on video with each candidate we choose to represent, to fully understand their career aspirations and technical ability.
