A small sample of the senior placements we've made since 2020. We anonymise the client where the work requires it, name them where they're happy to be named, and tell the story honestly either way.
Companies we've placed senior people into
A Staff-level backend hire at one of the UK's largest consumer fintech businesses, completed in 24 days against a brief that had been live with another firm for four months.
Offer accepted at 24 days. The hire has since become one of the firm's most senior ICs.
A VP Engineering appointment at a Series C AI-native business, completed in 38 days. The hire built and ran the recruitment of the next ten engineering leadership hires personally.
Offer accepted at 38 days. The hired VPE has since added a Head of Platform, Head of ML, and Head of Applied — all from Northstack briefs.
A Principal Designer hire at a Series B developer tools business — the most senior IC role in their design team and a hire the founder personally cared about.
Offer accepted at 31 days. The designer now leads the firm's design system and partners with the Head of Design on the function's growth.
