RECRUITMENT SPECIALIST, IT CHANNELS & OEMS

Former corporate leader turned specialist headhunter. I spent years inside the industry before I started placing talent in it.

Built for
Three Businesses in IT

IT CHANNEL PARTNERS

Resellers, system integrators and solution providers who need sales and pre-sales talent that understands the channel. People who can sell value, not just specs.

IT OEMs

Companies like IBM, Dell, Lenovo and HP, and similar hardware and software OEMs, who need sales, pre-sales, deployment and engineering talent that knows the product and the ecosystem inside out.

IT VALUE ADDED DISTRIBUTORS

VADs who need inside sales, category managers and vendor relationship talent that can drive margin and build partner relationships, not just process orders.
The Process

Precise.
Not Spray and Pray.

Good hiring is hard. Not because talent does not exist. Finding the right fit, in a niche vertical, under business pressure is a completely different skill from general recruitment.

Having worked inside Maxtor, Dell, Lenovo and Samsung, I know what a hiring manager actually means when they say we need someone with channel DNA. That lived context is what makes every placement count.

I start a search only when the requirement is clear. That protects the quality of every shortlist I send you.

 

1. Brief Intake

You share the mandate clearly. Role, team, KPIs, cultural context. I ask sharp questions, not generic ones.

2. Targeted Search

I go into the market with precision. My network runs deep inside IT channels, OEMs and VAD ecosystems, not scattered across everything.

3. Profile Validation

I sort, screen and validate every candidate before you see them. You get a shortlist, not a dump of CVs.

4. Curated Submission

You receive clean, contextual profiles with my assessment. No padding, no noise, no time wasted.

5. Hire and Close

I support through offer stage. The goal is a hire that sticks, not one that looks good on paper for 90 days.
What I Place

Every Role That
Drives Revenue & Delivery

If it touches sales, pre-sales, technical implementation or customer success inside IT Channels, OEMs or VADs, I have placed it.

 
  • Focused, not scattered. I do not recruit for HR, finance or general management. My depth is in revenue-generating and technically-oriented roles inside IT Channel, OEM and VAD ecosystems. That focus is what makes every placement land well.
The Difference

Why Hire Me
to Hire for You

I Have Sat in Your Chair

Dell, Lenovo, Samsung, Maxtor. I have managed teams, hit quotas
and hired people in these very ecosystems. I understand the
pressure you are under when a seat stays empty.

Vertical Depth, Not Width

I work only in IT Channels, OEMs and VADs. That means my talent
network is deep in your world, not scattered across industries. You
get candidates who are already in the ecosystem.

Quality Brief, Quality Hire

The sharper the brief, the better the shortlist. I work with you to get
to clarity first, because it directly improves the quality of every
profile you see.

The Process

Clear Steps.
No Guesswork.

Only Qualified, Only Relevant

You will never receive a profile I have not personally validated.
No keyword matching, no bulk submissions. Every resume
I send has a reason.

Senior to Mid. Both Covered.

Whether you need a Country Head of Channels or a sharp
inside sales executive, the mandate gets the same rigour.
500 plus senior and 2500 plus mid-level professionals placed.

Solopreneur. No Layers.

You work directly with me. No junior researcher handing off
your mandate, no account manager relay. What you brief,
I personally execute.
