Expertise

Two specialisms. No sector list.

A recruiter covering eleven industries is guessing in all of them. We cover software engineering and AI, which is why our screens hold up in front of your staff engineer.

01 — Specialism

Seniority

Both tracks, end to end.

Most firms pick an end of the ladder — volume junior hiring or executive search. Running both is why the firm that placed your senior engineer already understands the team when you need the manager above them.
