About
A practice built around one idea.
That talent leaders deserve advice from someone whose only interest is the quality of the answer. The Talent Advisor was founded to be just that — a small, independent practice that integrated with in-house teams, helping guide you on the decisions that matter most.
We are an independent workforce and talent advisory practice supporting businesses to improve hiring performance, optimise recruitment operations, and strengthen workforce strategy. With extensive experience across internal talent acquisition, MSP, RPO, and embedded hiring models, we provide practical, commercially focused support across recruitment audits, supplier optimisation, workforce planning, hiring process improvement, and talent technology reviews. Our approach is designed to help organisations reduce recruitment costs whilst sustainably scaling your operation.
Our approach
Four principles we won't compromise on.
Independent
We have no affiliations, don't resell software or take supplier kickbacks. The advice is the product.
Trusted
Engagements are led by the owner, with over 15 years experience in the talent industry, giving you assurance and confidence in the advice.
Insightful
We give you the broadest possible view of the market, best practice, and the tools, services and options available to you.
Impactful
Evaluations come with key recommendations in a detailed, yet concise and useable format.
Who we work with
Founders making their first ten hires. Established enterprise functions. Everything in between. Our solutions are tailored, so we ensure that whatever your model, you get full insight, expert advice, and clear recommendations.
