To give a damn, or to not give a damn?

That is the question…

Moving jobs can be a big decision. Let me see if I can make it easier for you. 

Our mission is to be the number one executive search firm in the digital infrastructure space. That’s a given. 

But we’re going to do it on our own terms. 

A firm that cares deeply about clients, candidates and colleagues.
But also a firm that couldn’t care less about old school ties, shiny shoes or office politics. 

OUR VISION

Nobody will ever work for our business. 

The business will always work for us.

We love our work, but we’re not barmy.

We do it because it’s well paid, interesting and gives you a huge sense of achievement. If any of those three aren’t on offer, we won’t even take the search.

We’ll make sure we always have fun, nice things and an enviable reputation for placing great people.

We won’t tolerate remote working, we’ll always actively encourage it. The more remote the better.

We’ll help candidates and colleagues enjoy the career and lifestyle they want.

We’ll always be nomads,
but always part of a tribe. 

Our Values
and
Behaviours

“You have spinach in your teeth.”
Honesty can sometimes sting, but it’s always the quickest and fairest way to do business. 

We don’t polish turds or sugar-coat medicine. We’ll always be open and transparent about what we’re doing and how we do it. 

Without our integrity, we’re nothing. 

 

“We’re not couriers”
We deliver the goods, always. 

If we say we’ll do something, we own that promise. Nothing gets thrown over a hedge or forgotten about. 

Accountability is worryingly rare these days. 

 

“We believe that we lead the lives we make for ourselves.”
We’ll provide training, resources and a sense of fun. The rest is entirely up to you.  

You can do your job at 3am in a camper van on a remote Scottish Island if you like. Say ‘no’ to sticky carpets. Down with MDF office furniture. 

Commuting can do one. It’s your lifestyle, you live it.

 

“Market traders will always be able to sell boxer shorts for a pound.”
Cheap always has a market. Fast always has a market. 

It’s your choice but if you buy the wrong boxers you can guarantee that in three months you’ll be looking for another pair.

Quality and results always win. 

 

We love haystacks”
There’s nothing we enjoy more than a good needle hunt.  

We haven’t lost a game yet. 

In search, resilience matters.
