About us

Established in 2004 to provide a bespoke recruitment service to the deep tech sector we have over the years developed a real understanding of the sector, the culture, the employers and candidates.

This has enabled us to create a rich network of both including candidates who are not actively looking for a new job.

Unlike a traditional recruitment service, ours is more of a partnership and matchmaking service where we get to know the employer, the business and our candidates before putting them forward.

With recruitment becoming increasingly challenging for employers, we have developed a unique strategy and process to identify and source talented candidates in response.

Our blogs

  • “Male, pale and stale” has always bothered me!

    Over recent years I have been focussing more on Diversity and Inclusion, particularly from the viewpoint of how the deep tech industries can widen the talent pool available to them by encouraging underrepresented groups into their industries.

  • Salaries up, Placements down and Vacancies down in October

    Increased uncertainty surrounding the economic climate is weighing on business decisions and candidate movement. Souring demand for labour could lead to further reductions in recruitment in the months ahead.
