What We Do

Gene East is a data specialist staffing business based in London, supplying skilled commercial & technical professionals for data driven clients across the UK, Europe and United States.

Globalisation and the fourth industrial revolution go hand in hand with an explosion in data. Whilst the exponential growth of information brings vast opportunities for deeper learning and automation, it also carries significant data security, management and process issues. We help our clients to address those challenges by recruiting highly skilled technical and commercial professionals, solely within data driven markets.

Why Gene East?

Here at Gene East, we have three objectives:

  • To deliver significant value to our clients.
  • To help the candidates we advise achieve their career goals.
  • To be known for our integrity.

We work with FTSE100 listed technology clients, to start-ups with initial funding and a working proof of concept. Our clients ask us to recruit experienced professionals only, usually from 10 years in work, through to VP / C level.

Whilst we work with clients delivering leading edge technology, our recruitment method hasn’t changed much from what we know works best. We are “old school” in our approach, dedicated to fully understanding our candidates and clients desired outcomes, and driven to deliver a “win win” result.

We provide key insights into the recruitment market within our core verticals. Those valuable perspectives allow our clients to position themselves to recruit and retain top talent, and helps our candidates to reach their career goals.  Our core verticals include fraud, financial crime, AML, identity and data analytics.

Clients

Gene East works in partnership with technology clients who pioneer innovation in data. We know that clients want a recruiting partner who understands their business, the market, reasons for recruiting and their culture, in addition to providing valuable perspectives on hiring.

We know you want credible, high performance and stable individuals with a growth mindset. We help our clients to streamline their recruitment process, saving time and money and upskilling their capabilities. This is where we excel.

We don’t advertise or use CV websites to attract candidates, we only use our network and contacts to meet referred professionals. We know who the best professionals are, and we help you hire them.

Recent studies show that only 5-20% of candidates are “actively” seeking a new role, meaning only a small part of the workforce are applying to job adverts, or listing their CV on job boards. Hiring those candidates means recruiting the best of the unemployed, or the best of the unhappy. Our research shows that only a very small percentage of top performing staff “actively” seek a new role in this way.

Modern recruitment methods are skewed in the wrong direction, there is a focus on applicants rather than referred candidates. We excel in introducing clients like you to the best passive talent in your space.

We Advise Our Clients With Key Insights

Have you ever made a bad hire? Recent research suggests that a bad hire can cost a business up to £500,000 through negative performance, cultural dilution and staff attrition. There is a significant opportunity cost the longer a position remains unfilled, for every month that passes, the cost can run into the £hundreds of thousands. We reduce that risk and save our clients considerable time and money by  helping them hire highly capable and credible staff.

If you are open to partnering with a skilled and networked recruiter, we will be of significant value as you grow your business. Speak to us to know more about how to hire the best, in addition to information on new recruitment trends.

We are old school, and we know it works.
