Welcome to SEEKR_ |
We are a small, highly adaptive team of tech recruiters who live and work in London, Berlin and Cape Town. We love the freedom of remote work though, so you may find us almost anywhere. We do one thing very well, and that is fitting people-shaped puzzles together. Our principles are simple: we represent only companies we would work for and people we would enjoy working with. |

TESTIMONIALS
-
Working with Oliver on finding my next role has been a pleasure. He was able to understand my motivations and recommended positions accordingly. His good relationship with a broad range of interesting tech companies--in addition to Banks--plus his great advice before and after interviews are invaluable. I will definitely work with Oliver again in the future.

Oliver is without doubt one of the best recruiters I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Trustworthy, technically savvy and pragmatic are not necessarily traits you would associate with every recruiter, but certainly set Oliver apart from the rest. Having worked with Oliver for a number of years, it is clear he has an innate ability to understand his clients needs and translate that into highly relevant profiles. The open and frank conversations that we have ultimately allow me to make the right decisions quicker and coupled with Oliver's ability to close a deal, leads to a very fruitful relationship. I wholeheartedly recommend Oliver.

Upon first working with Oliver he quickly proved himself to be a cut-above his competitors, with his ability to understand the business and requirements of the particular role, and most importantly, deliver. Oliver became a trusted partner whereby we could both have honest and no-nonsense conversations. Oliver has always gone above and beyond with offering market insights and benchmarking when asked or even when he thinks something is worth sharing. I can’t recommend Oliver highly enough.

Oliver is an experienced recruiter who invests his time to truly understand his clients’ and his candidates’ needs. I found Oliver’s insight and advice very valuable. He is truly passionate about finding the right people for his roles and he goes out of his way to learn about what skills it takes to successfully fulfill the requirements, his knowledge goes far deeper than “buzzwords”.

I worked with Seekr to find my next career step, and it was simply the best recruitment experience one could ask for. I benefited from clarity, engagement and availability throughout the whole process.Micaela has been an excellent communicator, staying in touch and guiding every step of the way, offering tips and materials and anticipating issues. It took all of five minutes for the Seekr team to convince me that they mean business. I'd applied for a DevOps role, and after asking a couple of questions, they offered me a Platform Engineering role instead. This role turned out to be an excellent match. The interview process was a long one, spread over multiple months and over the Christmas break, and Micaela's engagement throughout was stellar. She helped set all the correct expectations...

His guidance has made me comfortable in the process - and it afforded me the confidence that ultimately landed me some great opportunities. Thank you, Mark!
