Technology & Data

Our technology desk deliberately avoids the crowded middle of the market. We do not compete on volume front-end hiring. We recruit for platform and infrastructure teams, data engineering functions, and security roles, which is where our clients struggle most and where a specialist actually adds something.

That focus shapes how we work. Technical screening is done by consultants who can hold a conversation about deployment pipelines and data modelling without a script, and we would rather send three candidates who all warrant an interview than twelve who fill a shortlist. Our clients are typically scale-ups past Series B, financial services technology functions, and a growing number of manufacturers building internal data capability.

The market corrected sharply and has since found a floor. Hiring volumes are below the 2022 peak but quality of applicant has improved, and the roles that remain hard to fill are the ones that always were: senior platform engineers, data engineers with genuine production experience, and anyone who can do security properly rather than only talk about it.
