What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a role scaling GTM teams at high-growth SaaS or cybersecurity vendors, partnering with execs, owning end-to-end recruitment, and delivering standout candidate experiences while contributing to commercial growth and employer brand.

I am a proactive, results-driven Talent Acquisition professional with 7 years' recruitment experience and 5+ years in tech recruitment, specializing in go-to-market roles across Automation, AI and Cybersecurity for US and EMEA. I focus on delivering strategic talent solutions that scale early-stage and hyper-growth software vendors.

I maintain an 8:1 interview-to-placement ratio and have generated significant billings (Opus Recruitment: £135,500; Elsdon Group Year 1: £127,000; Year 2: £146,400; Year 3 to date: £94,000). These results reflect my ability to identify, engage and close top-tier sales and GTM talent across markets.

I own the full 360 recruitment cycle, partner with executives to design creative hiring strategies, and am familiar with ATS systems such as Greenhouse and Bullhorn. I build consultative relationships with candidates and stakeholders, prioritize a world-class candidate experience, and maintain an engaged LinkedIn audience of over 2,500 followers through regular industry content.
