TALENT Solutions & RECRUITMENt FOR TECHNOLOGY & saaS firms

Effective Recruitment Solutions To help You Win the War For Talent

Since the 1990s, North Star has been recruiting in Technology for Software Engineers & Developers, Solution & Technical Architects, ERP Technical, Functional and Solutions Consultants, BI & Database specialists, Business Analysts and high-performing Technology & SaaS Sales professionals.

North Star offers a different recruitment, talent acquisition and hiring experience to the usual commission-driven IT recruitment businesses.

North Star has not had a permanent hire 'fail' or 'drop out' since 2003. This is a record we are very proud of. Our introductions stick because we do the job properly. We understand the tech and roles we recruit. We've often sat in a seat doing that job.

We have a 100% completion rate for retained recruitment mandates. Our longest standing client relationship dates back to 1993.

We are not a CV factory. Our offering is a value-added, end-to-end and road-mapped recruitment process. We only accept mandates we can be highly confident of delivering on.

You can be confident North Star will help you attract, hire and successfully on-board the right person with the right skills for that empty seat.

We interview and assess all candidates thoroughly, using our proprietary Candidate Packaging methodology. Additionally, Sales and Busines Development hires are assessed using our proprietary Sales Talent Engagement Framework (STEF).

As part of our work representing your business or organisation, we guarantee to not only protect your employer brand in a hot talent market, we will also ensure all stakeholders, including jobseekers, have the best possible hiring experience.

Our Lead Recruiter has worked for a top 3 global software vendor in a senior techno-functional ERP consulting role. He has worked at a niche ERP scale-up, as an advisor to Microsoft & Oracle Partner firms, as well as transacting in Technology & Technology Sales recruitment for experienced hires with hard-to-find and business-critical skills.

This hard-won experience informs and drives our work; we bring empathy, insights and understanding to the table. 

We see the hiring and businesses challenges as you do - we've walked a few miles in your shoes. 

Our recruitment model is a retained one - on accepting your instructions, we ask for a modest upfront investment. We do not accept instructions on a 'success only' basis. To find out why, call Kenny McAllister on +44 (0) 7743978179 to discuss.
