Building on their ever-growing impact on the global recruitment market, the Harrington Starr Group have announced the launch of Search 5.0: a specialist software engineering recruitment firm, matching world-class talent with the most ambitious and forward-thinking companies in the world.
Technology is mission critical to global success but businesses are currently threatened by a major talent shortage. Only 29 million people write code for a living a mere 0.38% of the global economy, and with technological innovation showing no signs of slowing down, the need for exceptional engineering talent has never been greater.
Search 5.0 enters the marketplace with the mission of closing the developers skills gap, ensuring global growth is not devoid of its most central resource: people; diversify the industry by ensuring inclusive hiring practices sit at the fore of operations; and, quite simply, ensure the most positively disruptive firms in the industry are matched with the talent that will fuel the next era of limitless growth.
“Having worked in the space for a number of years now, I’m acutely aware of the pressures this talent short market places on firms,” says Con Lam, Co-Founder of Search 5.0. “This is why Search 5.0 was started. We’re solution-driven and equipped to provide the necessary insights that will allow for brands and networks to continue to grow, irrespective of wider industry adversity. I’m truly excited to see the impact we’ll deliver, and to see the new heights or clients and candidates will reach.”
Toby Babb, CEO, The Harrington Starr Group, added: “Search 5.0 represents an exciting step in our group strategy to build outstanding companies in high demand, global markets. Additionally we are keen to create opportunities for our entrepreneurial team and back them to succeed. We have seen real growth in our Belfast team and it is a genuine pleasure to see Con and Stephen take this opportunity on.”
“We’re really excited to be launching Search 5.0,” said Stephen Turkington, Co-Founder of Search 5.0. “Software engineering is the most in-demand skillset, yet it is still a candidate short market; and that’s having a knock-on effect across global innovation. It’s our mission to close this skills gap and build a diverse engineering community, whilst creating a space in which our clients can thrive in 2023 – this is the bit that really excites me! We have a superstar team in place, each with a wealth of industry experience, ensuring any interaction with Search 5.0 is enjoyable, trustworthy, and most of all, successful!”
With offices in Belfast, London and New York, our specialist team are brilliantly poised to address your recruitment needs, and deliver excellence to each and every candidate and client.
