Join Talent

Building some of the world’s most amazing tech, product & digital teams 💻💪🦾

Join Talent provides businesses with the technology, manpower and expertise required to enable them to hire, onboard and manage the talent they need to meet their growth plans.

JT was founded when, after a career as senior leaders 'in house', our founders resolved to create a solution that gave companies true depth of expertise in building, shaping and delivering on in-house talent attraction & retention.

No ‘cookie cutter’ solutions, or singular reliance on ‘best practice’ models - instead a truly bespoke suite of solutions that get right to the heart of your specific challenges.

Almost instantly JOIN talent started delivering on projects for an enviable range of brands - and we have gone from strength to strength since- gaining a reputation for being client-centric and for delivering even more value than our customers could have anticipated.
