SMARTER HIRING.
FASTER RESULTS.
BETTER TEAMS.

Finding the right talent shouldn’t slow you down. We help startups and scaleups hire faster, build diverse teams, and create a seamless candidate experience


ABOUT ADAM

I’ve spent my career optimising hiring processes—helping companies attract, hire, and retain top talent.

Since 2005 (yes, I still look youthful), I’ve worked across agency, in-house, and leadership roles, learning what actually works in hiring. In 2019, I joined Currencycloud, leading tech hiring before taking over the entire Talent function. One of my biggest wins? Cutting Time to Hire below 30 days in a tough market.

After Visa acquired Currencycloud, I spent two years scaling hiring processes while improving efficiency and candidate experience.

Now, I help businesses hire better, faster, and smarter. Let’s connect.

What people are saying

I worked with Adam when I was Director of People and he was Director of Talent. We built a strong and collaborative working relationship. He brings a thoughtful and solution-oriented approach to sensitive or complex topics, always looking for common ground to drive meaningful outcomes.

His genuine interest in HR practices and their connection to talent strategy helps him see the People Team as one team, fostering collaboration and breaking down silos.

— Elodie Martinie-Evans

Director of People, Currencycloud

I had the pleasure of working with Adam for 5 years at Currencycloud. He built out a first-in-class talent acquisition function, focusing on utilizing technology to improve the hiring experience and speed of delivery. As VP of FP&A, I appreciated that he implemented strategies to significantly reduce recruiter costs while maintaining candidate quality and quantity.

He was great at partnering with finance, and I believe he played a massive role in the business as it ramped up headcount for growth.

— Allan Cheung

VP, FP&A, Currencycloud / Visa

Adam drove hiring when we tripled the size of the Currencycloud tech org. He was a brilliant partner, making hiring great engineers fast and effective. He reduced time-to-hire to <20 days while focusing on diversity and candidate quality.

The people he hired helped the company grow fast and become a Unicorn. His work made a real difference, and he’s a trusted person to partner with!

— Jose Pettoruti

Senior Engineering Manager, Currencycloud

Adam is a game-changer when it comes to recruitment. He helped us cut time-to-hire while keeping the candidate experience top-notch. Every process he touched became smoother and more efficient, making hiring faster without losing quality. If you want to hire smarter and keep candidates engaged, Adam is the one to call.

Adam doesn’t just talk about diversity—he makes it happen. He helped us build a fairer, more inclusive hiring process that actually worked. While improving diversity, he also made sure we hired faster and better. If you need a recruitment expert who gets results and puts candidates first, Adam is your person.

— Barbara de Jong

Chief People Officer, Currencycloud / Visa

Adopting a data-driven approach, we were able to influence stakeholders to explore ways to improve time to hire and improve the diversity of their team.

In addition, we have received compliments from numerous candidates across the globe on:

  • How responsive we were as a company,
  • How transparent we were to candidates on the process (we made a deck to detail out the process: who candidates will likely be speaking to, what’s the timeline, and what’s our commitment),
  • Awesome candidate experience!

Across my years of experience in HR, Adam is one of the rare few who were able to walk the talk. Something that other companies (including most MNCs) have struggled with.”

— Victor Leong

Talent Acquisition Partner Currencycloud

Adam stands out in a sea of recruiters—honest, inclusive, and genuinely focused on doing the right thing. We’ve known each other for 10+ years, and I’ve always valued his no-nonsense approach. I don’t recommend many people in recruitment, but Adam is always on my list.

— Thayer Prime

Founder, TeamPrime

I worked closely with Adam on recruiting a number of new members for my team. During this time he introduced a new tool set used for the recruiting process which streamlined and standardised the recruitment process exponentially; this made my role in this process a lot easier and almost pain free.

— David Gammon

Technical Lead Currencycloud

Adam is an excellent Recruitment and Talent Leader and would be an asset to any organisation looking to scale. He managed me during my time at Currencycloud, providing me with the guidance and mentorship I needed in my first Talent role, whilst also giving me the right level of freedom and flexibility to deliver the huge amounts of hiring we needed in a short space of time.

Frequently Asked Questions

We optimise your hiring process by identifying bottlenecks, automating workflows, and implementing best practices that speed up decision-making—without compromising candidate quality. Our approach helps you fill roles faster while maintaining a seamless candidate experience.

RecruitMend is not a recruitment agency. Whilst we do source candidates—we help you hire smarter by refining your hiring process, improving efficiency, and ensuring your recruitment strategy aligns with your business goals. We focus on time-to-hire, diversity, and candidate experience, delivering long-term improvements rather than quick fixes.

We go beyond generic “diversity initiatives” by implementing practical, measurable strategies that remove bias, widen your talent pool, and ensure a fair hiring process. From inclusive job descriptions to structured interviews, we help you attract and retain diverse talent.

Absolutely. We adapt to your current tech stack, whether you’re using an Applicant Tracking System (ATS), CRM, or other hiring platforms. Our goal is to enhance your existing systems and make hiring more efficient—not to force you into a new tool. And if you don’t have anything in place at the moment, we can help with that, too!
