You're not a myth

But finding the right role can feel like one.

You're good at what you do. Really good. You're not trawling job boards, not refreshing LinkedIn Jobs, not updating your CV at midnight. You don't need to. Work finds you, or where you are is good enough for now, or you're waiting for something specific that hasn't come up yet.

​

That's a reasonable way to manage your career. But it has a blind spot.

​

The roles worth moving for don't always get advertised. Some of the best IT opportunities are filled through networks and direct conversations before a formal process even starts. If you're only visible when you're actively looking, you're only seeing part of the market.

 

We'd like to change that.

The Mythical Talent we place everyday

Which one are you?

The Unicorn

You're the one everyone's talking about but no one can pin down. Rare skills, high demand, and a LinkedIn profile people study like it's a legend.

The Phoenix

You've been knocked down by a tough market, but you're not out of the game. You've come back with a sharper CV, stronger skills, and you're ready to rise again.

Bigfoot

You're not easy to find, and that's the point. You're not scrolling job boards, you're heads-down doing great work, and you only surface for something worth it.

The Loch Ness Monster

Everyone's heard of you. Almost no one's actually spoken to you. You keep a low profile, stay off the radar, and when you do surface, it's worth the wait.

The Kracken

You've got many arms and just one login. You quietly carry the workload of a whole team, until the day everyone finally notices exactly how much you do.

The Griffin

You've got eagle eyes and a lion heart. You spot generic outreach a mile off, protect your reputation fiercely, and you only answer to the right offer.

What a conversation looks like

We're not going to push you toward anything. A conversation with one of our consultants takes about twenty minutes and covers three things:

​

What you're doing now and what you're good at. What would actually make you consider a move — culture, team size, tech stack, flexibility, seniority, location, remuneration, and career progression. And what the market looks like right now for someone with your background.

​

That's it. No commitment, no pressure, no weekly emails unless you want them. Just a clear picture of your options and a relationship with someone who'll reach out when something worth considering comes up.

Hiring IT Talent?

If you're a hiring manager looking for the candidates everyone says don't exist, we can help with that too.
