We are a founder-led business started by two friends, James Oliver Mace—back then a Java recruiter—and Billy Bernard Jenkins, a specialist in web.
Our approach centers on equipping consultants to be true specialists in their tech markets. This allows us to build strong candidate relationships, master relevant tech stacks, and become trusted industry experts.
