About

Hey, I’m Josh — a recruiter-turned-writer based in London. I’ve helped build early teams at over 25 startups in the past 7 years, mostly in SaaS and fintech. Now I share insights about how small companies hire, what hiring managers really look for, and how to stand out in a noisy job market.
