About Us
Specialist, founder-led recruitment supporting UK Wide
Engineering, Manufacturing & Technical businesses
Hiring skilled teams & achieving outcomes
EMT Talent is an independent recruitment partner supporting engineering, manufacturing, and technically driven businesses when the cost of getting a hire wrong or delayed is high.
Every search is led and delivered directly by the founder. There are no junior consultants, no handovers, and no volume-driven behaviour.
Why we exist
Hiring technical professionals shouldn’t feel chaotic, slow, or speculative. Too often, businesses are flooded with CVs, unclear shortlists, and candidates who look good on paper but struggle to add value once hired.
Our role is to bring clarity, control, and momentum to technical hiring, not noise.
We have over 10 years of experience, working with businesses of all sizes, from start-up to large corporations, helping hiring managers recruit people who add value.
If a vacancy requires technical credibility, industry context, and confident decision making then it’s likely a fit. We focus on relevance, not volume, if we’re not the right partner, we’ll say so.
