Co-Founder + CEO, TRM
appetite’s technical recruiters have startup expertise from companies that shaped their industries. Companies like Google, Facebook, Netflix, LinkedIn, Apple.
Our Founding team has over 25 years of experience in helping startups reach their full potential.
Co-Founder & CEO
Mike has the unique perspective having been a startup Founder himself scaling a business to success and sell. He gets the challenges you face daily. He has significant experience in technical recruitment filling niche roles. Mike would say Founders need to focus on product, customers and millions of other things but would be wise to select a recruitment-as-a-service rather than doing it themselves.
Co-Founder + Head of Delivery
Liza has a high bar for technical recruiting based on her experience at Facebook. She has mastered the processes behind identifying top talent and avoiding the placement of bad candidates. She would say recruitment needs to be based on a well articulated formula and not be a subjective decision.
Director of Operations
Sue brings expertise in full cycle international human resources recognizing the importance of being flexible to a company’s need to pivot due to external factors. She has worked across different industries consulting with startups. Sue would say you need to establish a solid foundation early to ensure the right culture, values, processes and compliance in today’s legal landscape.
