About Us
Cybersecurity Talent Delivered with Precision, Speed and Culture Fit
We are a Cyber Security recruitment agency that takes a human-first approach to headhunting.
We place Cyber Security experts and leaders with startups and evolving scaleups.
Our “Why”
“After over a decade recruiting for high-tech, FMCG and media companies, we saw top security teams struggle to hire reliably at pace. So we built SOCO Talent to fix that.”
Sophie Cowan, Founder
We find your A-Players
We have a proven system for mapping the market and identifying the A-players who would bring next-level value to your team, based on your business needs.
Then we engage, screen and vet everyone thoroughly prior to submission.
So you can be confident in receiving a solid, thoroughly pre-vetted shortlist.
How we’ll help you as an employer
We match people with organisations where they add value, broaden perspectives and support transformational goals.
Great recruitment is built on long-term, collaborative partnerships. So we take time to understand your culture, your “right now” and your “what’s next”, then we deliver results at pace while remaining an open dialogue for consultation and value-add beyond live searches.
Whether you’re after permanent Cloud Security champions or fixed-term DevSecOps heroes who know their Kubernetes from their Terraform, we’re flexible, agile and run a simple, transparent process because we are here to make recruitment easy for you.
How we’ll help you as a candidate
Here’s the deal, we actually listen. We’ll dig into your goals (short-term wins and big-picture dreams), uncover what excites you and then we’ll only put you forward for roles that excite you and make sense.
We’re ready to help polish up your CV, offer honest and helpful career advice and then we’ll make sure you head into interviews feeling prepared, confident and ready to shine. Basically, we have your back from start to finish.
