La Fosse is the UK's largest employee-owned technology talent and transformation business. It helps organisations build the tech teams they need to grow and transform, supporting them across the full talent lifecycle, from the classroom to the boardroom.

For nearly two decades, La Fosse has worked with some of the fastest-growing and largest companies in the UK and internationally, helping them build exceptional tech teams, scale at pace and transform how they work. Its four service lines, Recruitment, Executive Search, Academy and Inovus, work together so customers have one partner at every stage, from their first hire to their next CTO.

Employee ownership sits at the heart of the business. The majority of La Fosse belongs to its people, so everyone shares in its success and has a say in its future. It's why 91% of its people feel strongly engaged with employee ownership.

The business is built on three values: care, humility and ambition. Hiring diversely, championing equality and creating an inclusive environment are central to its commitment to care, alongside UNBOUND, its community for women in tech.

La Fosse Academy is its tech training programme, creating pathways into tech for people who wouldn't reach it through traditional hiring. It finds, trains and places the tech talent of tomorrow, bringing diverse, high-quality people into the workplace for the long term.

Featured Quote

I think the best test of a culture is what people say when you ask them honestly. That's why we take part in Best Companies. As an employee-owned business, our people share in what we build, so their view of how we're doing matters most. Not every answer will be comfortable. That's the point. It tells us where to focus next.
