Meet TALENTHATCH

We are a husband-and-wife team and we founded Talent Hatch at a natural pause point - following the birth of our daughter - when we had the opportunity to reflect on what mattered most and what we wanted to build next.
 
With James’ specialist recruitment expertise and deep sector knowledge, alongside Christy’s commercial strategy and marketing experience, we built Talent Hatch to help businesses hire game-changing talent that fuels growth - through a recruitment process that’s fast, efficient, and stress-free.
 
James understands the roles, the teams, and the nuances of the sector inside out, which means less explanation, faster shortlists, and better matches from day one. Christy brings a commercial, client-side lens to Talent Hatch. Her experience scaling teams at high-growth brands means she understands what’s at stake when hiring, and designs processes that ensure businesses can access the very best talent, globally.
 
Find talent that unlocks innovation and fuels growth, with TALENTHATCH.

The TALENTHATCH way

Strategic discovery

We start by clarifying objectives, challenges and context to ensure we understand which types of people will make a real impact.

Intelligent planning

We share market intelligence to help you make informed plans, from role design to salary expectations and availability of talent. 

Properly connected

We agree a focused plan, then tap into long-standing relationships across the industry to ensure you can access to talent that’s off the radar..

Vetted by experts

We leverage deep sector knowledge to rigorously assess skills, cultural fit, experience and potential, so you meet stand-out candidates.

Our DNA

We are uncomplicated

We’re transparent, humble, ego-free and we care. That's it. We understand the pressures our clients and candidates face and work hard to keep things simple so their time is used efficiently.

Accelerated by tech

We combine our expertise with house-built tech that simplifies, automates and drives efficiency, meaning we can deliver accurate shortlists with minimal explanation. It’s a powerful blend that our clients love.

Experts in what’s next

We’re fanatical about innovation - being ahead of the curve is at the core of our culture. We seek out emerging national and global trends and build our expertise at speed to support clients with recruiting in them.

Unlocking opportunity

We empower people from all backgrounds to build the careers they deserve in research, data and analytics. We hold this close in our own agency too, with inclusivity at the core of our internal recruitment.

The unity in community

We love building relationships and leading the charge in connecting others too. Let us know if you’d like to get involved in our communities, groups and events designed for socialising and learning.

Meet the founders

James

James

I’ve spent the last 13+ years recruiting across research, insight, data, and analytics - and I still love it as much as the day I started. I’ve seen first-hand how exceptional talent can transform businesses, having recruited at every level - to date I’ve placed over 500 exceptional candidates across 10 countries.

I know the research, data and insight sector inside out, and I love talking about the latest movements and trends in the industry with like-minded people - which might be why I’ve built such strong relationships with candidates and clients that I would consider some of them genuine friends!

When I’m not working I’m usually busy running around after my 1 year old daughter and our Cavapoochon, Otto, or losing in the Quirks Fantasy Football league...
Christy

Christy

With over 13 years’ experience in commercial marketing at high-growth brands like Premier Inn, Deliveroo and Greene King, I've helped businesses truly understand their market, their customers, their teams and what success looks like at every stage of scale.

At Talent Hatch, I run our operations, marketing and process design, as well as advising on strategy, commercial and marketing roles, with one goal - to enable businesses to access the very best talent, globally.

My most important title however is not Co-founder, but Mama. I also LOVE food - cooking and eating - and exploring the world of food with my husband and daughter is my absolute favourite thing to do.
