We’re STEM recruitment specialists based in Cambridge, UK,
and we’re highly selective about who we work with.
Our clients are in STEM sectors across the UK, North America, and Western Europe. Most of them are

Our candidates have technical software ability matched with commercial communication skills.
They can bridge the gap to translate a customer’s requirements to the R&D team and vice versa.
A career in science allows you to be part of an industry that is continually evolving and shaping the world we live in. With constant discoveries, there are countless ways that you could be part of it.

Don’t worry if you haven’t heard of us before. We’ve been recruiting since 2019. During that time,
we’ve filled hundreds of roles and received dozens of testimonials from happy clients and candidates.
Most people find us via word-of-mouth recommendation – the best kind of marketing there is. We’re also building our presence on LinkedIn and at online events, producing video content that adds value and demonstrates our expertise, and contacting people via email outreach.
So it won’t be long before everyone knows our name.
If you’re considering working with me and my team, you might like to know a bit about me. After all, I’ll be asking a lot of questions about you!
I’m driven to make the world a better place in a million little ways, by connecting talented people with jobs that make a difference. I also work to ensure STEM sectors become more accessible to people from all walks of life.
After over a decade in the sector, I understand the frustrations of poor recruitment and do whatever I can to make job-hunting easier and sourcing talent more effective. I keep a close eye on my hand-picked team to ensure you get the same service from each one of them as you would from me.
I’m a member of the FSB and Cambridge Network, and volunteer as the Cambridgeshire Local Leader for Enterprise Nation. I hold a BA degree in enterprise and entrepreneurial management. That demonstrates my fascination with start-up and scale-up businesses.
With work-life balance in mind, you might be interested in what I enjoy doing outside work – this includes keeping fit, cooking and eating great food, and discovering new places and cultures with friends and family. I suppose this shows I’m primarily a people person. As such, I look forward to talking to you soon.
CONNECT WITH GERALD ON LINKEDINI’ve had the pleasure working with Gerald both as a job applicant and as an employer for several marketing roles within a high tech company. Gerald has an exceptional ability to get to the very core of employer’s needs and expectations as well as to gain a very clear understanding of candidate’s ambitions, personality and skills, and to match the above just right where others may overlook the fit. Gerald is extremely driven, has excellent interpersonal skills and great problem solving abilities which makes him highly effective at his job. I’ve seen Gerald pushing forward and finding solutions in situations where others would have given up on an opportunity.
I’d had poor experiences with agencies before; being promised the world and then not hearing anything. Gerald was quick to help build up my belief in myself and the process and was confident that I’d find something in no time. He was true to his word and before I even left the office, presented me with an opportunity he felt was perfect for me. Within 24 hours I had secured the job on a contract basis. 5 years and 6 promotions later, I’m still with the Company and very grateful for Gerald’s quick response and positive attitude that helped me on my way.
Writing as a client of Gerald’s, I can say Gerald is exceptionally good at his job, a very enthusiastic, positive, and friendly person. He made sure I was always in the loop at every step, often going out of his way to help me find a new career. Unlike some other recruiters who try to push you down a certain avenue, Gerald encouraged my open and honest feedback on potential roles, quickly finding suitable roles. Within no more than two weeks Gerald got me final stage interviews and offers with companies and roles that were exactly what I was looking for – I couldn’t ask for better fits. He also negotiated on my behalf an excellent package that I was very pleased with, at a place I’m really excited to work at. There is literally no other thing I could ask of Gerald, a professional through and through, I count myself as very lucky to have his help.
Having been on both sides of the hiring process it’s rare to find someone as personable and diligent at following-up as Gerald. Gerald was with me every step of the way through the hiring process, he opened regular lines of communication to make the whole process as transparent as possible. Knowing where I was became vital as I juggled several opportunities at once and ensured that all parties were on the same page making it much easier for me to make a decision. Gerald conducts himself and the entire recruitment process with inspiring professionalism, taking the time to understand the technical software industry; what’s needed from candidates, what they offer and how those align. It was a pleasure to be a part of the process and I would highly recommend him to anyone in search of new opportunities and businesses looking for a recruitment consultant that’s responsive and offers new ideas.
