Working directly with the CEO, I was responsible for picking up any tasks pertinent to the business in his absence.

In addition to this I also created and maintained company budgets, collating financial data and making projections, working closely with our CEO and accountant to set a financial strategy for the company.

HR Administrator/Office Manager

Surprised to see such a niche recruiter? You're not the first to say that.

I've been immersed in the world of Conversational AI since Alexa was starting to make waves. As the field has evolved, so have we. Introducing Techire AI – Your Gen AI Hiring Partner.

We're the only agency fully focused in this space. Why? Because we're passionate about understanding the tech, grasping the nuances, and recognising what makes a strong R&D team tick. This experience has given us unique insights into the challenges and intricacies of this dynamic field.

From my tech start-up days, I've seen it all when it comes to recruiters. So, trust me, I know how not to do things. That's why our approach is different.

At Techire AI, we're all about quality over quantity. We're in it for the long haul, building lasting relationships with innovative companies pushing the boundaries of AI.

And while our focus is niche, our reach is global. We've successfully placed researchers and engineers all around the world.

Outside of this, you'll find me volunteering at the local dog shelter or (trying!) to learn Portuguese!

At the start of this year, I questioned whether speech and audio was stagnating.

Companies weren't really hiring. People were happy in their roles. Not much hype happening outside of the main big tech companies.

After 6 years of focusing in this space, I wondered whether it was time to leave this domain behind.

Then a few months later, it went wild.

What changed?

Investment flooded in. The tech advanced rapidly. And companies are finally finding their niche in a crowded market.

But the biggest shift? Talent movement.

More people from big tech and top research labs are considering startups than we've seen in previous years. 

Markets can go quiet. It can't always be sky high. 

But persistence matters—especially in specialised domains where timing isn't always in your control.

Speech/Audio is having its moment, and it's showing no signs of slowing down.
