What we do best
We help companies build the teams that matter most - executive, go-to-market, AI, cyber security, product and engineering. From the first regional leader to full APAC build-out, we support the hires that shape market entry, revenue, customer trust and
long-term scale.
Executive Search
The leadership appointments that set direction, culture and capability for the next stage of growth.
Go-to-Market
The commercial teams that open markets, win enterprise customers and build revenue engines across APAC.
Artificial Intelligence
The engineers, scientists and operators building and deploying AI at the intersection of research and product.
Engineering & Product
The technical and product leaders who turn strong ideas into scalable, reliable systems and high-performing teams.
Cyber Security
Security leadership and specialist talent across architecture, operations, governance and cloud - for companies where trust is a competitive asset.
Company Build-Out
End-to-end team builds for companies entering a new region or scaling faster than a single hire can solve.
The full company build, not just one function.
Most search firms specialise in one lane. GTM. Engineering. Executive search. Technical recruitment. The Talent Vault connects the full hiring architecture - helping AI-native and high-growth technology companies build leadership, commercial and technical teams together.
From GM to GTM. CTO to FDE. Product to Partnerships. AI to Cyber Security. We help companies build the team around the market, not just fill isolated roles.
Executive Leadership
The first leader sets the standard - for culture, for capability, and for every hire that follows.
Commercial Build
Revenue in a new market doesn't come from a playbook. It comes from the right people executing one.
Technical Build
Operators who can ship in new conditions, not just familiar ones. Credential-grade and operator-grade are not the same thing.
APAC Scale
The sequence matters as much as the hire. Who comes first shapes what's possible next.
The first hires
define the market
For companies entering APAC, the first hires cannot be treated as disconnected searches.
The sequence matters. The profile mix matters.
The market narrative matters.
The wrong first hire can cost 12-18 months. The right one creates trust, unlocks customers and sets the standard for every hire that follows.
Search firms move fast. We move right.
Ben has played a critical role in building Cresta's GTM team here in APAC. From the beginning, he has been tenacious and dedicated, taking the time to deeply understand our business, our stage of growth, and the calibre of people we demand to build a high performing team.
He is a level apart from others I've worked with in the past: he pushes back when it matters, brings real market insight, and consistently puts forward candidates who are genuinely right for what we're building, across the org - sales, marketing, FDE, and solutions roles.
He's been professional and hands on throughout, from first conversation through to offer and beyond. A good part of our regional success comes down to the team he's helped build, and I cannot recommend Ben more highly for companies looking to identify and close the very best talent.
Cresta AI
When a business-critical candidate situation became difficult through no fault of his own, Ben told me he would find one candidate I would genuinely love and hire within 24 hours. I will be honest - I did not fully believe him. But he delivered.
What stood out most was not just the speed or quality of the shortlist, but the ownership. Ben followed up every month for six months after placement, even while on holiday, to make sure the hire was working out and that we were fully supported.
Mosh (x-Afterpay, Xero, Tyro)
I was introduced to Ben when AC3 was scaling our DevOps, Cloud Engineering and Solutions Architecture teams.
From the beginning, Ben was providing quality candidates we had not been able to find ourselves. In fact, he delivered so many strong people that we had more options than available roles.
Even when negotiations became complex, Ben remained calm, professional and focused on achieving a result that worked for everyone. He is a strong operator who understands technical talent markets and knows how to deliver under pressure.
AC3, Bulletproof
Ben provided excellent support and service throughout the entire recruitment process.
He took the time to fully understand our business, our goals and the type of candidate we needed to join our team. He brought all the attributes you would want in a recruitment partner - strong organisation, clear communication, efficiency, patience and a thoughtful approach as we worked through the process.
I would happily recommend Ben to any organisation looking for a trusted recruitment partner who takes the time to understand the brief and deliver the right result.
The Executive Centre
I worked with Ben on a number of DevOps and Cloud roles in Sydney, and his professionalism, demeanour and response times were exceptional.
From our first interaction, Ben acted in our best interests and consistently went above and beyond to find outstanding candidates who strengthened the team while protecting the culture we had worked hard to build.
It has been a pleasure working with Ben, and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to candidates looking for their next opportunity or companies looking to hire high-quality talent.
Cloudec, AC3
Ben is a detailed, customer-focused recruitment executive with a genuine passion for creating partnerships that deliver value for all parties.
He takes the time upfront to understand organisational context, culture, role nuances and success metrics, which ensures he is focused on placing the right people - not just filling roles.
The team led by Ben proactively manages the end-to-end recruitment process, providing timely, relevant updates and ensuring the experience is professional, efficient and aligned to business outcomes.
Ramsay Health Care
I have worked with Ben on both sides of recruitment - as a candidate and as a hiring leader.
Ben placed me in my current role and has also sourced candidates for my teams. Across both experiences, he has been highly professional, relationship-led and consistently focused on delivering quality outcomes.
I can highly recommend Ben for his ability to build trust, manage relationships and source high-quality candidates in competitive technology markets.
Versent, AC3
From the first conversation through to the final call celebrating my executive appointment, Ben was a genuine pleasure to work with.
He was thorough in explaining the role, the business context and the expectations, while also bringing a human touch to every interaction. Throughout the process, he provided clear guidance, represented my interests and helped me navigate the opportunity with confidence.
Ben is a strong partner for senior candidates and hiring leaders alike.
RISE / Megaport
Ben supported me through the process of moving into a new leadership role and provided invaluable organisational context ahead of my interviews.
The insight he shared about the business, team and role proved to be accurate once I commenced in the position, which gave me real confidence in the process.
During the recruitment process, I also experienced a health scare, and Ben handled the situation with genuine care, empathy and professionalism while still keeping everything on track.
Ramsay Health Care / HSBC
Throughout the process, Ben’s communication, honesty and integrity really set him apart. He represented the company, leadership team and culture with authenticity, giving me a clear and balanced view that helped me make a confident and informed decision.
From interviews through to negotiation, offer and onboarding, I always felt supported and never in the dark. I would highly recommend Ben to any senior candidate or hiring leader.
