Roundtable Talent

Roundtable Talent is a recruiting consultancy that specialises in helping growing companies find the technical and product talent they need to thrive. The company was founded by Stephen, a technical recruiter with over a decade of experience in the tech startup community, who has held Head of Talent and other leadership roles at companies including Citizen App, Everwise, Kurtosys Systems, Enigma and Attentive before moving into consulting.

Roundtable Talent focuses specifically on technical and product hiring for technology companies at various stages of growth, from a startup hiring its first engineers through to a company in hyper growth mode. The company offers two service models: Contingency Recruiting, a risk free option where clients pay only upon a successful hire, and Embedded Recruiting, a monthly fee arrangement in which Roundtable Talent immerses itself in a client's team to boost hiring velocity and clear internal bottlenecks.

Roundtable Talent partners closely with leaders and stakeholders across a client's company to understand its immediate needs, hiring goals and culture, aiming to accurately represent the client's brand when interacting with candidates. The Head of Talent at Nowsta is quoted describing Stephen as someone who can navigate ambiguity, create clarity and drive results, and says they call him first whenever they need to supplement their hiring team. The company positions each placement as more than a hire, describing it as a key piece in a client's long term success story.
