About

I founded Avery because I kept watching smart companies hire badly - not from lack of effort, but from lack of intelligence at the moment it mattered most. They would post a role without knowing if their salary was competitive. Source for weeks without knowing how many real candidates existed. Start from scratch every single time, never learning from what worked before. I spent 13 years at HEINEKEN, Carlsberg, and Colgate leading commercial teams and hiring hundreds of people across multiple markets. I felt this problem from both sides - as someone building teams, and as someone watching recruitment tools that gave data without context. So we built Avery. Avery is a sourcing intelligence engine. It does not just show you a talent market - it shows you your place in it. How competitive your salary is. How long a role will realistically take. Which candidates in your existing network already match. And it gets smarter with every hire you make, so your 50th hire is fundamentally better than your fifth. We are starting in Europe, working with scale-ups and TA teams who are done paying LinkedIn prices for generic market data and zero company context. If you lead hiring at a growing company - or if you think the way recruitment works today is broken - let's talk.

  • Why I founded Avery? I hired hundreds of people across 13 years in corporate leadership. Almost every bad hire had the same root cause - we started too late, with the wrong information, and learned nothing from the hire before.
  • Avery fixes that.
  • We are building the sourcing intelligence engine that shows hiring teams exactly what it will take their company to hire the right person - then helps them do it. Not generic market data. Intelligence specific to your company, your past hires, your real constraints.
  • The result: roles filled in weeks not months, mis-hire rates that drop toward zero, and a system that compounds - so every hire makes the next one faster and smarter.
  • We work with scale-ups and TA teams across Europe who want to stop guessing and start hiring with intelligence.
  • If you are hiring 20+ roles a year and want to see what the market actually looks like for your hardest role - reach out.
