Harrison Clarke
Harrison Clarke partners with world-class VC-backed startups and innovative companies to build the engineering teams that shape the future of technology. With offices in San Francisco and London, we combine deep technical expertise with a high-performance, collaborative culture.
The Opportunity
We are hiring a Director to lead and grow our London office. This is a hands-on leadership role for a visionary operator who thrives on building high-performing teams, driving commercial results, and shaping the next chapter of our growth.
You will own the performance, culture and growth of the London team while remaining deeply involved in day-to-day client relationships. This is not a pure “manage from above” position, we need someone who rolls up their sleeves, sets the standard, and leads by example.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead, inspire and develop a high-performing London team of researchers and consultants
- Set and deliver ambitious revenue, placement and growth targets for the office
- Drive a culture of excellence, accountability and continuous improvement
- Oversee client relationships and ensure outstanding service delivery across permanent and contingent hiring
- Partner closely with global leadership to align London strategy with company-wide goals
- Attract, coach and retain top talent within the office
- Represent Harrison Clarke externally with clients, candidates and the wider tech ecosystem
- Contribute to the broader firm’s evolution as both a search firm and venture partner
