Greencastle Technologies

Greencastle is a professional recruiting agency founded in 2018 by Ellett Bates, who brings nearly 20 years of recruiting experience and previously served on the board of the Technology Association of Georgia for AI and Data Science, alongside affiliations with a number of recruiting non-profits and organisations. The company was created to solve a common challenge faced by growing businesses, which is hiring the right talent efficiently. It handles searches from individual contributor roles all the way through to C-level executive searches, and offers direct-hire employees, hourly contractors and contract-to-hire solutions.

Greencastle serves a range of industries including IT, financial services, medical and legal. Its clients include small software product companies, Fortune 500 industry leaders, national law firms, financial and insurance services companies, hospital groups, energy providers, manufacturers and the U.S. State Department. Before launching any search, the team invests time in understanding the client's business goals, project needs, qualifications, certifications, technologies and team culture, an approach the company says presents well-aligned candidates and so saves time and reduces hiring friction.

The company is headquartered in the Wilmington, North Carolina area and also maintains a physical presence in Atlanta, Birmingham, Raleigh and Charlotte, while serving clients and conducting searches nationwide. Greencastle describes itself as a small, experienced team of senior recruiters rather than a volume business, and says contractors choose to work with it because of industry-leading benefits and weekly pay, which keeps them motivated and focused on client work. Its stated mission is to connect exceptional talent with the right opportunities and to make hiring efficient and stress-free, and it says many clients have gone on to appoint Greencastle as their exclusive recruiting partner.
