GTSW is an incredible resource for expanding knowledge on the wider subject of sustainable technology. It’s helped to expand my network of environmentally focused tech folk. Enabling conversations, collaborations and new friendships. It’s a great community to be a part of.

Scala and Kafka were initial sticking points for the manager, so we pressed for suitable alternatives to increase the flexibility. They agreed to consider candidates with different streaming experience and programming backgrounds which opened a larger pool. We placed 3 highly technical hires.

ADLIB have really gotten to know us over the years, truly understanding our business, mission and values. They’re our trusted partner and go to for hiring insight. Not only are they perfectly aligned with our B Corp values and understand how to run an inclusive process, but their track record is second to none. We knew we could trust them to find the very best candidates and to ensure the candidates in process had an excellent experience. It was especially helpful to receive their guidance when shaping the job description and title for the role. Forget using Exec Search firms, ADLIB is the one!

"As a content design lead with a rapidly scaling team, I recently needed 3 experienced senior content designers asap - and luckily I got to work with Sam. He took the time to understand my team, and how we work as content designers and ux writers in our specific working environment. Sam quickly found outstanding candidates, and made my busy days easy by organising interviews, setting up calls, ensuring I had information and details quickly and without hassle. Especially helpful was that Sam had clearly taken the time to get to know each candidate - he understands all the UX skillsets including all the various aspects of content design, and could also help me understand each candidates’ background, a bit about their character and preferences. That meant I was able to have meaningful conversations with him about fit and capability, which helped me make hiring decisions. I was able to hire 3 amazing content designers in about 3 weeks."

By choosing ADLIB as their Outsourced Recruitment Partner, TFSL ensured a timely and effective solution to their recruitment needs, securing a highly capable Marketing Manager in less than a month.

"Sam has helped us recruit UX Designers, Service Designers and Accessibility experts for the last 18 months. During this time, I have come to understand that Sam has exemplary knowledge of UX disciplines, knows many candidates on a personal level, and only ever refers highly-skilled top-tier humans. What sets Sam apart from others in the field is the time and energy he puts into understanding the current (and envisioned) culture of the team he is recruiting for. This dedication allows him to spot people who will support your culture and not (negatively) disrupt it."

Using a combination of contingency and search-based recruitment, combined with our niche experience within the microbiome and genome engineering space, we helped them secure highly skilled Scientists and Laboratory talent for their "Science Creates" site in Bristol, from a Senior Scientist, QC Scientist, Senior Research Scientist, to multiple Support Scientists and a Fermentation Scientist requirement.

"We look for a type of character above anything else when hiring for our business. We call it the vvast way and the team at ADLIB really get that and seem to be able to see through candidates that look good on paper but don’t match the criteria to fit our unique culture. We just need solid, straight-talking people that adore good brands and the innovative work needed to leverage that. Having a solid partner that gets us in this way alleviates one of the challenges as we grow."

Acting as an extension of the LabGenius team, we ensured that candidates met both the cultural and technical requirements to succeed. We successfully placed a range of talent, for niche Protein Characterisation, Protein Production, High-throughput screening, Cell Biologists to Assistant Laboratory Managers, Laboratory Technicians and People Managers, as well as IT and Software Engineers, Engineering Managers and Delivery Managers.

The Head of Data Engineering needed this team built fast, so we agreed to keep open lines of communication and for 24-hour CV turnaround and suggested streamlining the process as much as possible due to the nature of such a competitive talent market.
