Peter Hartley
Director
Since January 2010, I’ve been helping tech startups overcome the challenges of attracting, scaling, and retaining high-performing engineering teams. With over 15 years of experience across the UK, Europe, and the USA, I specialize in guiding Pre-Seed to Series C startups in building effective engineering teams. My hands-on expertise comes from both recruiting for startups and building recruitment startups myself, giving me a deep understanding of the fast-paced, competitive nature of hiring in tech.
I solve key issues that many founders face, including competing with big-name companies for visibility and reputation, navigating a limited talent pool, and managing candidate negotiations that can strain budgets. I also address the common frustration of candidates dropping out or the time-intensive nature of recruiting that detracts from running the business.
Additionally, I streamline the hiring process by identifying specific needs, crafting clear and compelling job specifications, and assessing candidates efficiently. This ensures my clients hire the right people without sacrificing valuable time or resources.
