Data Hiring

"They genuinely care about finding the right opportunity for both the candidate and the client.

I've worked with Burns Sheehan both as a candidate and a client over the years. Their attention to detail and willingness to listen to feedback stood out both when I was looking for a new opportunity but also when building the data team at Graze.

It has been great working with Burns Sheehan, who were always great at finding good candidates in a very short period of time. They will certainly be an asset to anyone that works with them."

"Having successfully worked with Burns Sheehan for over 10 years, they have always been my provider of choice as both a candidate & client.

When we started Sproutl and were building out our data function, it made sense to choose them again. Throughout the ongoing partnership, Burns Sheehan have helped us hire some exceptional talent.

They demonstrate great communication throughout the process, a wealth of candidates, good market & technical understanding and a genuine care for getting the job done."

Andy Done, Co-Founder & CTO, Sproutl

"Burns Sheehan have two clear strengths: their ability to partner with a business and their ability to find and manage excellent candidates.

At Dojo, we've been going through a hyper-growth phase in our data team and Burns Sheehan have been an integral part of our talent and hiring efforts. They have partnered with us in a way that is an extension of our own talent team; they always listen to our requirements, challenges and feedback, and constantly evolve their search to ensure we are only provided with candidates that are a match for Dojo.

“Burns Sheehan quickly became our number one technology agency of choice, and so were invited in as an embedded recruitment solution to complete a new Data Science hiring project.

Once the on-site project kicked off, Burns Sheehan worked alongside our recruitment and data teams to help define roles that would add further structure to our growing data team in London. Burns Sheehan delivered a healthy pipeline of CVs across all roles, and really understood our stakeholders’ needs.”

'James was able to understand the skills I had and was able to engage with myself on both a technical level, but more importantly on a personal level.

When he got in touch with me I had a few contract offers already lined up, but after speaking on the phone it was clear this was an opportunity that I couldn't pass up - but more importantly couldn't miss in terms of working with a recruitment agency that had brilliant people working there - James being the best representation.

I can happily call James more than a recruiter contact, but as part of my circle and I know I'll always have him in my corner if I'm ever looking for a new opportunity.'

“We’ve partnered with Burns Sheehan since 2017, as they have helped us grow our Software Engineering function, and provided a consistently strong pipeline of candidates in a tough permanent market.

We’ve also attended several technology events organised by Burns Sheehan that were suitable to our technology stack – and have played an active part in their blog and Tales in Tech Series. This has helped raise our technology brand awareness – and given us access to a wider pool of talented candidates in the Python community.”

“Working with Dan and Burns Sheehan has never let me down. He is always able to find a great selection of candidates across every type of data and software role, no matter the requirement.

Dan and his team have a great instinct for the kind of person who would fit well into our data team. He is able to proactively recommend candidates even when we are not explicitly advertising a role. A great guy who finds great future co-workers through his ever growing network.”
