Scaling your team shouldn't stall your business. I help startups and SMBs hire the right technical and non-technical talent, faster, and without the back-and-forth. I'm a Talent Acquisition Specialist and Co-Founder of Talent Partners Ltd, a recruitment consultancy placing candidates across Africa, Europe, and the Americas. On Upwork, I take on select sourcing and full-cycle recruitment projects where I can deliver the same standard of work. What makes my approach different: I combine traditional Boolean search and LinkedIn Recruiter with AI-assisted screening tools to build pipelines that are both fast and high-quality. In a recent sourcing project, I screened over 466 candidates and delivered a qualified shortlist for multiple engineering roles, all remotely, across time zones. ✅ What I deliver: — Qualified candidate shortlists within 24–72 hours — Full-cycle recruitment: sourcing → screening → coordination → offer — Strong pipelines for technical roles (software engineers, data analysts, QA) — Cross-border hiring across Africa, Europe, and the Americas — 80–90% offer acceptance rate Tools I work with: LinkedIn Recruiter, Manatal, Calendly, Boolean search, AI screening tools, Zoom, Google Workspace Certified: GCA Workforce Competency Assessment, Recruitment Management (100%, June 2026) If your pipeline has gone cold or a role has been open too long, that's exactly the problem I solve.
