Helping ambitious businesses scale
&
individuals find where they belong

Designed to be different, Belong goes beyond traditional recruitment. We provide bespoke, flexible talent solutions tailored to the needs of each business – from embedded talent acquisition and strategic hiring support to large-scale recruitment projects and executive search.

Founded by Jessica, a former Head of Talent at one of the UK's fastest-growing SaaS start-ups, Belong was born from first-hand experience of building and scaling teams internationally.

We understand the challenges of attracting exceptional talent, navigating growth and building high-performing teams because we've been on the inside.

More than a recruitment agency, Belong is a talent partner, combining the insight of an in-house talent leader with the expertise, flexibility and reach of a specialist consultancy.

Established to be different

In an industry that can often feel transactional and in a world increasingly driven by technology, Belong Consultancy was created to bring a more human approach to hiring.

Our Founder, Jessica, previously led Talent for one of the UK’s fastest-growing SaaS startups. She understands first-hand what it takes to build a business and how important each hiring decision is for founders and leadership teams.

That experience shapes how we work.

For companies, hiring isn’t just about filling roles - it’s about building teams, shaping culture and bringing visions to life.

For candidates, it isn’t simply a career move - it’s about finding where you belong.

What our clients say

James N. - Founder, FinTech

We started working with Jess soon after our Series A – when we had the funding and needed to scale fast.

What really stood out through working with Jess was that she’d actually been there before. Having been Head of Talent at a start-up prior to her starting Belong, she understood the reality of building and scaling a business, not just hiring into one. She kept reminding me that companies don’t just grow – they either grow well or grow badly; and that we need to build a culture, but not just a business.

Jess wasn’t afraid to challenge me or other managers either, holding up a mirror for some big hiring decisions and helping us think more strategically about the team we were building.

Her knowledge of the FinTech and Payments space was a huge help too. She helped us bring in people with the right product and regulatory experience – many things that were not on my radar, but turned out to be critical.

Jess also helped us build out our internal recruitment function, which we now run ourselves, but she’s still a big part of our journey and we continue to work with her on senior and exec hires. And I am often reminded by her not to lose the culture we worked so hard to build in the early days!
