"Strive and I have partnered on a number of business critical, hard to fill roles over the last year and they have been great!

Roles in Germany are exceptionally tricky but they took the time to understand the business, understand the requirements and was successful in filling these roles.

Strive understand what true business partnership is and always go above and beyond when it comes to open communication with both myself and the hiring managers."

Julia Brame,
Recruiting Lead

"The team at Strive were introduced by our VC partner, Dawn Capital, to help us build out our EMEA go-to-market team.

Right from the off set, the team were pro-active and had a very thorough approach to understanding our company value proposition and culture. They were able tell the CluedIn story in a way that really engaged and prepared the candidates well for our interview process. Their ability to deliver in a timely manner was vital for us.

They were able identify and engage with a niche talent pool within the data space, which enabled us to be very selective with the individuals we hired. Over and above their candidate quality, something I found invaluable was their detailed market reports, this gave us a greater understanding of the talent pool and an in-depth insight into how we were perceived in the marketplace.

I would have no reservations about recommending the team at Strive if you are looking to build your go-to-market teams."

Jeppe Grue,
Chief Operating Officer

"Strive were fantastic to work with. 

They are an active and direct partner and I can really appreciate that about them. The team kept us in the loop on candidates and where they were at throughout the process as well as continuously kept us up to date on the market which is extremely important to us to have a consultative relationship with agencies we work with."

Jamie Calabria,
Talent and Culture Manager

"When looking to build out your founding GTM team, you need to find a recruitment partner who ‘gets it’. After having open headcount within our Founding sales team for over 6 months, I was struggling with finding a partner who understood our stage of growth, the types of individuals we were looking for and the technical expertise required to be successful in this environment. That was until partnering with Strive.

His tenacity, organisation and consultative approach meant that I now have a high-performance team in place as we scale towards our next funding round. I would highly recommend partnering with Strive & I’m looking forward to continuing our partnership as we further build out the team in the coming years."

Drew Ganther,
VP of Sales

"I partnered with Strive to launch our SaaS team in Europe as I scaled our team through the A, B & C rounds of funding.

They demonstrate high-touch communication, urgency, and focus on building strong relationships with your team. More importantly, they do the same with the candidates along the way which promotes a better experience for all involved.

The team are great listeners, craves feedback, and is highly skilled to support in all phases of growth."

Eric Marterella,
Chief Revenue Officer

"It’s a real pleasure to work with the Strive team, who are professional and accessible.

We tested the team for new hires, and in a short period of time they found the right profiles in regions that are complicated to hire in. Strive are the only company we are working with that have the full scope of our sales organisation.

Thank you so much for your great support, we are looking forward to fuelling the company with more talent."

Alexandre Pierrin-Neron,
Senior Vice-President, EMEA

"The partnership with Strive came at a crucial time. I was behind in my hiring plan and struggling with multiple recruiters who couldn’t bring me talented sales professionals with the right technical sales experience required to sell our solution to engineering departments.

I had a clear picture of what I needed for the team, but it seemed other recruiters were more focused on getting me to compromise on my expectations rather than finding me suitable candidates. Immediately after starting with Strive, I conversed with the exact candidates I was asking for. I’ve consistently been impressed with the thorough notes and details I receive on each and every candidate and how they show up to the first call enthusiastic about LinearB and excited to speak with me.

After 1 year, I’m on track with my hiring plan with a high-performing team in place. This would not have been possible if I didn’t start working with Strive when I did."

Mike Avery,
VP of Sales

"Nearly anyone who has been hiring people with the help of a recruitment firm will have faced the same dilemma: will they put as much or more effort into finding the right candidates for the role I have open as they put into getting me as a client?

This is where the team at Strive truly stand out. Yes, they work hard to earn your business which is great. But they work even harder to get you the right candidates, not just once as a lucky shot but consistently. And it’s not down to a single individual in the Strive team, it’s the culture Adam and Harrison built in their team which makes their approach and handling of candidates and customers alike so effective, professional and pleasant.

Since we started our engagement with Strive, it has been easy on me to cut off calls from other recruiters (sorry guys), the partnership we have with Strive is too valuable to us and brings us the results that we are looking for. We always ask our candidates for their opinion on the interaction with the recruiter and all of them give Strive an unconditional thumbs-up which is an important metric for employer reputation I believe."

Wim Van Campen,
VP of Sales, EMEA

"Working with Strive has been absolutely pivotal for our tech recruitment needs in the crypto industry. Their expertise in sourcing top talent, particularly for challenging profiles, has been nothing short of exceptional.

From the outset, it was evident that Strive understood the unique demands of our business. They wasted no time in delving deep into our requirements, allowing them to swiftly pre-filter a plethora of candidates. This meticulous approach not only saved us valuable time but also ensured that only the most promising individuals made it to the interview stage.

What truly sets Strive apart is their remarkable ability to deliver results swiftly without compromising on quality. Within 10 days of commencing our search, they successfully placed a key member within our core team. This individual has since become an invaluable asset to our organisation, thanks to Strive’s keen eye for talent.

In an industry as competitive and fast-paced as crypto and financial tech, having a recruitment partner like Strive is an absolute game-changer. Their efficiency, dedication, and knack for finding the perfect fit make them our go-to agency for all our hiring needs. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough."

Craig Taylor,
Chief Software Architect

"I have worked with the Strive team for some years now with great success, so it was a no-brainer when moving over to SEDNA that I wanted them onboard here too.

Not only do Strive go above and beyond when gathering market research during their search, which is of paramount importance to us when optimising our hiring processes and implementing future recruitment strategies, the team is no stranger to filling notoriously difficult roles whether it be leadership or in greenfield territories for them. In other words, they roll their sleeves up and deliver time and time again."

Jim Preston,
VP of Global Sales

"Strive were recommended by an ex-colleague from Marketo, as I needed to act fast to recruit a Solution Architect.

Within a month, the team at Strive were able to identify the right profiles for us and we signed our new hire last week.

Dedicated, focused, listening to your requirements, finding the right approach to align with your business; Strive are great people to work with and to have as a contact moving forward."

Francois Rychlewski,
Director of Sales, EMEA

"Strive are by far one of the best recruiters I’ve worked with.

Not only are they so well connected in the industry, but their knowledge of this market is so strong, they’re the true ‘go to’ for all roles within SaaS. With their attention to detail, thorough follow-up, and general work ethic, they are a pleasure to work with and it’s refreshing to work with recruiters who do not cut corners for the quick wins.

The team at Strive are ones to watch!"

Jen Melia,
Talent and HR Manager, EMEA

"The team at Strive helped me a lot to build the EMEA founding team at Stream Native.

They understood our needs and provided qualified sales candidates in volume who had sold similar solutions, many of whom we have hired.

I would have no concern recommending Strive!"

Gilles Barbier,
General Manager EMEA
