What does Perseus have to do with tech recruitment?

Perseus existed during Ancient Greece and famously be-headed Medusa. But what the fudge does that have to do with tech recruitment?

We try and live by similar values. Persistent, virtuous and intelligent. Persistence is important to solve our problems and work at a pace that’s comfortable for you. We work via slack, zoom or calls if you prefer. But we respect your time and believe having a balance is important. Virtuous is something we want you to see not for us to say. Intelligence is hard to measure, but we do out best to master our craft with our weekly book-club and coding sessions.

Say to our team

Kevin Marney

Director

I enjoy running around new cities and have an eye for street-art. From my small collection – my favourite piece is Dran poulet-dinosaure. With experience recruiting agency side and in-house – we’ve created a hybrid model to best serve our clients. My favourite sport is skiing and enjoyed many trips in Branäs with my family. Although I can’t wait to experience the alps!

My tech recruitment experience has been focused in software development across Scandinavia. My core focus is helping build on-site tech teams for our clients across Copenhagen and Stockholm.

Sophie Perry

Operations and People Manager

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me at the gym, pub or gaming (currently playing Zelda: Breath of the Wild on my Switch). I also love anything Marvel – the Avengers films are my favourite, Captain America a close second!

I started at Perseus People as a Tech Talent Partner, but have now had the chance to move across as Operations and People Manager, taking over more responsibility for the running of the business. Don’t worry, my recruitment skills definitely come in handy! 😁

My main focus is helping Perseus People do what we do best – helping to scale tech teams across the Nordics.

Anthony Moore

Senior Tech Talent Partner

Currently helping build better tech teams across companies in Scandinavia. I have a keen passion for sports having participated in the London Youth Olympics back in the day, I also enjoy my gaming and all things interactive, playing Monster Hunter and Final Fantasy XIV currently when my free time allows. With a very outgoing personality, I am always happy to chat!

Excited to help and support people to get the best opportunities for them, and build some great relationships for many years to come.

Luke Joelsson

Tech Resourcer

I’m interested in computer hardware and enjoy playing computer games. Currently playing League of legends and enjoying the all for one game mode. I’m currently attempting to build my first computer and competing for national-level swimming. 

I’m working as a tech researcher and engaging with software developers across Sweden and Denmark.

Max Hodson

Tech Talent Partner

For the times I am not on LinkedIn (which isn’t very often!) I do find myself very active and have varied hobbies to keep me busy.

Currently, I’m really into my training at the gym, specifically weight lifting. I feel this feeds into day to day life as the gym helps you build that elite mindset and to keep you pushing forward. Motivation is one aspect, however being disciplined is far more important for daily success. Alongside this I love my music! You will find me across the country at house music events/festivals and have been abroad many times to see my favourite DJs.

Technology has always been a part of my life growing up. From as far as I can remember my brother and I used to play PSP/DS. This then grew into an addiction and I got my hands on my first Xbox which would see me play Call Of Duty and Gear Of Wear. However, this did not satisfy me enough as I wanted to become the best at everything. Fast forward a few years and I built myself my first PC. My main game was League of Legends but I did dabble a little into CSGO. After a few years of League of Legends I started live-streaming my gameplay and uploaded videos to Youtube, at this time I had reached top 500 in Europe on the EUW server. I wanted to share my results and build a community with the live streams on the side!
Heading into adult life meant full time work! A big shock to the gaming lifestyle I had before. Started as a trainee estate agent at Haart and then progressed very quickly with 3 promotions within 18 months. During the last 18 months we had turned the branch from 8th market share to 2nd consistently/breaching 1st on occasions, this taught me how to grow a business and what is needed to become elite at my role.

Now I’m very excited to help scale up tech teams in Denmark.

Jake Jorgensen

Tech Talent Partner

Born and raised in North Jutland and now living in London, there’s still two Danish things I can’t live without: seafood and remoulade! If I’m not searching for the hottest tech talent, you’ll probably find me eating open sandwiches after a round of golf – my happy place! I’m a keen golfer and have won a number of amateur championships (but although I might like to think so, I’m definitely not Denmark’s answer to Tiger Woods).

My background is in sales and recruitment, and I most recently worked for one of the largest recruitment firms in the world. I’m now excitedly seeking out tech professionals and would love to help you source the best talent. I’m friendly and approachable and have a genuine desire to see Danish firms excel in this industry. Give me a call if you want to talk business (and golf).

Jack Wilde

Account Manager

I’m Jack and I am working inside the Stockholm team as Account Manager, as well as ensuring the companies we work closely with are having their positions filled and growth plans in order, I am a happy man, I’m here to support companies growth within tech teams and ensure we are doing everything we can to help!

Outside of work, if I’m not on the golf course trying my best to not lose a new pack of balls you’ll find me on the water partaking in anything to do with jet skis, boats and water sports – I’m also an avid McLaren F1 team fan and throttle head – My favourite car currently is the Porsche GT3 RS which one day I will own!

Bradley Hall

Tech Talent Partner

I’m Brad and I am working within the Norwegian region to connect exciting companies with the best technical talents. I ensure i’m communicating clearly and effectively to guarantee a smooth hiring process from start to finish. I enjoy learning about new technologies, companies and projects too make certain I’m always ahead of the curve in the technical world.

Away from work I enjoy playing Football; me and my mates created a 6 a side and 11 a side team which we participate in weekly. Aside from football I enjoy having time to relax by watching new series and films.

Billal Ali

Tech Talent Partner

I am currently growing out our Finnish desk by helping tech teams across the country, hire the top 1% in each field.

When I am not working, I am still working unfortunately. I run my own personal shopping business on the side to help me afford my expensive taste. Aside from that, I love playing & watching football, just not Tottenham!

I am excited to see how the next couple of years pan out at Perseus, hopefully many more placements and great relationship building to come!
