For employers
A shortlist you can act on.
We recruit permanent and contract technology professionals for teams of every size. You get fewer candidates, each one assessed against your role, with the evidence written down.
What you can hire through us
Eight disciplines across the technology function, permanent or contract, from individual contributors to heads of department.
How we find people
We start with the brief, not a database search. Once we understand the work and the team, we look for people with directly relevant experience, including people who are not actively applying for roles.
An initial conversation covers motivation, logistics and expectations, so that nobody reaches the technical stage who would turn the role down anyway.
How technical screening works
Assessment is structured, specific to the role, and designed around your brief. Depending on the discipline it may be a technical interview, a walkthrough of past work, a practical exercise or a case study. We do not use one test for every role.
- Capability: can they do what this role requires, at this level?
- Experience: what did they actually do, as opposed to what their team did?
- Working style: how they communicate, make decisions and handle pressure.
- Fit with the brief: stack, domain, team shape and ways of working.
What the Technical Audit Record gives you
Every shortlisted candidate comes with a written record of the assessment. It is designed to be read in five minutes before an interview.
- A clear view of strengths and gaps, before you commit interview time.
- Specific areas to probe, so your interviews go further.
- Material risks stated plainly, including what we did not assess.
- A consistent basis for comparing candidates and for sharing with your panel.
Ways to work with us
Permanent hires, contract roles, and hiring for several positions at once. Commercial terms are agreed in writing before any search begins, and we will be clear about timescales and what we need from you.
What helps us most: a hiring manager who can spare time for the brief, timely feedback on candidates, and honesty about what the role really involves.
Starting a search
Send a short brief through the form. A few lines on the role, the team and the timeline is enough. We reply within two working days to arrange a proper conversation.
