Startup Recruitment & Talent Acquisition Consultant

Helping Australian Startups hire great people.

Hey, I’m Mitch 👋

I’m a Recruiter & Talent Acquisition specialist for Startup and Tech companies.

I’ve been the Founding Recruiter at Seed stage Startups Linktree and Mutinex that went through rapid scaling, the Lead Recruiter at a Fleet Space Technology, a Series D Space Tech scale up as well as previous agency experience recruiting for all size and stage tech companies, placing roles across Australia, USA, Canada & New Zealand.

While I specialise in Startups and Tech, I’ve been a generalist in the roles that I fill, this includes:

Engineers - Software, Data, Machine Learning, AI
Product Managers
Leadership
Data Scientists
Marketing
Sales
Operations
Product Design
Customer Success

From Mid level roles up to Heads of and C Suite, I’ve placed many roles in these functions efficiently and with positive experiences all round.

I value being direct and transparent with the companies I’m hiring for and the candidates I work with, removing the games and frustration for everyone involved.

Hiring isn’t easy but it doesn’t have to be hard.

My services

I can fill one-off roles as your Recruiter, work on longer term engagements for building teams through to establishing your hiring processes, tools and improving your own hiring ability.

Being independent means I can be flexible on the type of engagements and fees to suit your needs and stage of growth.

You brief me on the role and I go to work finding the best people that meet your criteria.
Retained fractional services, I will fill roles but also oversee your interview processes, train your interviewers, setup/manage your ATS.

Like having a part time Head of TA who is also a hands on internal recruiter.
- ATS selection and setup
- Hiring process audit and improvements
- Hiring Manager training
- Interview processes
- Workshops
A big appeal for me to go independent was the ability to experiment with different ways of working.

For example for a couple of clients, they wanted me to run searches and provide a shortlist of candidates for them to reach out themselves.
Others have had me consult on their hiring products for feedback.

Some just wanted me to promote their companies and jobs to my network through LinkedIn.

Happy to chat about any ideas and non traditional ways of working that you might have.
