About us

3. Over the past three years the market has experienced an
unprecedented uplift in demand for digitally experienced senior
executive and specialist candidates across product, strategy, data &
analytics, CX. UX/Design, engineering, sales & marketing.
While growth in talent supply remains relatively flat, breakout
demand is being driven globally by two key factors:
The digital transformation (DX) of mature enterprise organisations &
industries. DX investment is currently growing at ~18% YOY and
expected to reach an annual run rate of USD $2.1Trillion globally by
2019.
An uplift in venture technology investment which has trended at
more than 50% year on year growth for the past three years. In 2015
USD $128.5 Billion was invested in venture technology globally, up
from 89.4 Billion in 2014. Notably, investment in Asia was up 300%
year on year in 2015 to USD $39.7 Billion.
What's changing?

4. Everyone has seen the Unicorn graphic, but what is happening in the
talent as hyper funded ventures start to hit enterprise scale?
What else can we tell you...
* One of the the companies
on this graphic approached
us for advice in late 2015, to
help them figure out how
they might hire 2000
software engineers, in the
Bay Area, in 2016.
* In February 2016 we
headhunted a technology leader
(USD $2M candidate) in Europe
who is aware of at least 20 open
SVP of Engineering roles for
pure play internet businesses in
the EU. He indicated one of his
peers at another EU
venture is currently seeking to
hire 1000+ engineers over the
next 18 months.
* A well known Bay Area venture
recently hired a lead developer on
USD $1M a year (+stock) because,
as a known influencer in the
SCALA community, they will be
able to support the attraction of top
talent to their engineering team.
* One of the
companies on this
graphic is acquiring
a company a month,
just for talent.
* In April 2016 we were
approached for advice on
a strategy to hire
1000 Cloud engineers,
for a single client in Asia.
