Dave Henderson
Technology Leadership Recruitment
8+ Years in Tech Recruitment
"I work with senior technology professionals and organisations to make leadership hires across Infrastructure, Cloud, Engineering, Cyber Security, Data, AI, Product and the wider technology landscape. My approach is deliberately relationship-led. I’m continually building relationships with senior technology professionals – including people who aren’t actively applying for roles or visible through traditional recruitment channels. That means when a business needs to make an important leadership appointment, the search goes beyond whoever happens to be looking for a job."
Our Specialist Approach
The Network
Established relationships with senior technology professionals, including passive and under-the-radar talent.
The Market
Specialist knowledge of technology recruitment, built through years of conversations with candidates, hiring managers and technology leaders.
The Approach
Targeted, discreet search built around understanding the individual, the organisation and what the appointment needs to achieve.

IDS Group
Martin | Client Services Director
Martin is extremely passionate about what he does and he does it well. This has transcended across the Searchability model which is a fresh and exciting approach to recruitment and the challenges that companies face in terms of attracting top tech talent. I first started working with Martin in 2004 when I was Head of Interactive at An Agency called England. Martin has always been a pleasure to work with, transparent and honest with his candidates and assessment of the market and salary levels. I would certainly recommend both Martin & Searchability who will restore your faith in recruitment and will show you that there can be a different, more pleasurable and rewarding way to recruit.
MSX International
Andy | CTO
I've worked with Dave on several positions over the past nine months and he's been excellent throughout. What stood out from the start was the time Dave took to understand MSX as a business and exactly what each role needed. He didn't just match CVs to a job description. He got to grips with the team, the culture and the detail of the requirements, and it showed in the candidates he put forward. The quality of every candidate Dave submitted was consistently high, which made the selection process far easier. All placements have settled into the team well and are performing strongly. I'd have no hesitation recommending Dave to anyone looking for a recruitment partner who takes the time to get it right.
