When it comes to recruiting its own talent, SourceBreaker, a recruitment search platform, believes that potential outweighs qualifications. All but two of the leadership team started in junior positions just a few years ago, with no direct qualifications in their roles.

At the latest company presentation, one of the founders told staff: "You're all here because, when we interviewed you, we thought you were incredible." Everyone is welcomed into the company to join a journey rather than do a job.

Although the business has a motivated team and high-performance culture, SourceBreaker believes people spend far too much time at work for it to be a place they don't enjoy being. The social side of the business is considered to be vital, so that everyone is rewarded for their hard work, alongside a close-knit team with a common goal.

A full calendar of activities, including cookalongs, arts and crafts, running and book clubs operates. The company also offers wellbeing benefits, such as Vitality health insurance, which covers a range of problems, as well as providing access to counselling. A cycle-to-work scheme has been introduced, too.

More than 70 people work for the London-based company, which has developed an award-winning platform used by companies around the world. Powered by artificial intelligence SourceBreaker generates maximum return on investment by providing multiple opportunities to find job vacancies and place every candidate.
