The hire
that sticks.
Most SaaS companies hire twice for the same role. NewTribe clients don't. Here's why that happens — and how we built a model where it isn't the norm.
Also: people you'd actually want to sit next to. That part matters too.
One search lead.
One brief.
No handovers.
NewTribe is deliberately small. One point of contact from first call to accepted offer. Your brief never changes hands. Your search is never deprioritised for a higher-fee client.
When every client pays the same and the list stays short, the incentives are finally aligned with your actual outcome — not with how many CVs can be submitted before a competitor does.
This isn't a boutique affectation. It's the mechanism that makes everything else possible. When we're at capacity, we say so.
25 years on the other side of the desk.
I spent 15 years as an IT hiring manager — in scaleups and enterprise organisations. I made great hires and I made expensive mistakes. I learned that the difference was almost never skills. It was how well I'd understood the person, the team, and the moment the company was at.
I started NewTribe because I wanted to build a recruitment model where the incentives actually align with what matters to the client. Not time-to-submit. Not fee-per-head. Whether the person is still there in two years.
That's what pre-interviewed means. Not a 15-minute phone screen — a proper conversation about career, motivation, culture fit and technical capability. Conducted by someone who has sat in your chair and knows what a bad hire costs. Personally.
