Talent partners to ambitious technology companies.

We partner with founders and people leaders to scale their teams — with the right people, and the infrastructure that turns vision into momentum.

What we do

Part search firm, part talent consultancy. We hire the right people — and build the systems that keep hiring right.

Services · 01

3 ways we can partner with you.

01

Contingent Search

Partnership-led search for the mid-to-senior hires that move the roadmap forward. Structured intake, focused shortlist, close support through to first day. Our incentives are aligned with yours, from first hello to first hire.

02

Executive & Leadership Search

Retained search for the leadership hires that shape the company — C-suite, VP, and Head-of roles where the wrong appointment sets you back a year. Deep market mapping, discreet outreach, and candidates you can bet the company on.

03

Talent Infrastructure Projects

The systems and structures that make hiring work at scale — process design, interview frameworks, playbooks, interviewer training, workforce advisory, and technology implementation. Built to outlast the engagement.

Why Cord Talent · 02

Operators by background. Partners by design.

We've built and scaled teams and talent functions from the inside — through growth stages, regulatory expectations, expansion drives and organisational shifts. That experience shapes how we work: not as an outsider, but as an extension of your team — close enough to understand the business and the bar, structured enough to move at pace.

We start with the business, not the brief. Every engagement — whether a critical hire, an executive search, or a Talent Infrastructure Project — begins with a deep understanding of where you are, where you're going, what you need to get there, and where hiring fits within it. That's why our work sticks: not just seats filled or projects delivered, but a business built to succeed.
