Joseph M.

I’m Joe, a recruiter/headhunter with 19+ years of experience helping companies find difficult-to-hire talent across technology, SaaS, gaming and other specialist markets. I’ve worked agency-side, embedded/in-house and through my own recruitment business, supporting everything from early-stage startups and scale-ups through to large global organisations. My experience includes work with companies such as Adecco, Ablefy, Gameloft, HSBC, Barclays, Zurich, ExxonMobil, Unilever, T-Mobile and Transport for London. I’ve recruited across software engineering, product, sales and business development, customer success, leadership, operations, marketing, gaming/iGaming and other specialist technical roles. I specialise in direct headhunting rather than simply relying on inbound applicants. Over the years I’ve built an international network of 30,000+ professionals across LinkedIn and my own database, covering the UK, Europe, North America and Asia. India is a particularly strong market for me, where I already have a large established network. My recruitment experience includes embedded recruitment, talent acquisition, executive search, direct headhunting, candidate sourcing, talent mapping, market mapping, full-cycle recruitment, technical recruitment, international hiring and building teams from scratch. I’ve worked closely with founders, CEOs and hiring managers, and I’m comfortable taking ownership of a search from the initial brief through sourcing, interviewing, shortlist presentation, offer management and joining. I also have extensive experience in the gaming industry, including work with or supporting teams connected with studios such as Ubisoft and Gameloft, across AAA, mobile, casino/iGaming and indie businesses. Through my wider team I can also support gaming companies with art, animation, design and development when required. If you’re looking for an experienced recruiter who can understand a difficult brief, map the market and directly approach the right people, feel free to get in touch.
