Our storyBuilt by people who’ve carried a number.
Captain Talent is a UK sales recruitment agency founded by two brothers with 10 years of technology sales experience between us.
Our story
We’ve both worked in technology sales. We know what it’s like to start a month at zero, to be measured on a target and to wonder whether the company you’ve joined is really the right place for you.
We’ve also seen how hard it is to find the right people on the other side of the table. Too many recruiters send CVs they haven’t properly spoken to, for roles they don’t understand.
So we built Captain Talent differently. We speak to every candidate, we understand the role and the sales environment, and we put vetted people in front of hiring managers within 48 hours.
The team
Dawood
Co-Founder
8 years in B2B technology sales and enterprise account management. He knows what separates a rep who hits quota from one who doesn’t.
Mo
Co-Founder
2 years in SaaS sales and a talent for sourcing. He finds people others miss and knows what great candidates look for in their next move.
What we believe
The right workplace matters
A good job on paper can be the wrong environment. We help candidates find teams where they’ll thrive, not just a title and a salary.
Honesty over hype
We give candidates the real picture and clients the real market, even when it isn’t what either wants to hear.
Speed with substance
Fast should never mean careless. Every shortlist is vetted before you see it.
Respect for pressure
Sales is high-pressure. We treat candidates as people and hiring managers’ time as precious.
Hire better, hire faster.
Stop sifting through unsuitable CVs. We deliver a vetted shortlist within 48 hours of your brief.
