Female founded & diversity driven

With a decade of experience in the world of recruitment and technology sales gained at global and leading recruitment agencies in London, Claudia decided to take the plunge and set up Ortus, a dedicated technology sales and marketing focused agency in 2021.

As a keen traveller having lived in the UK, Canada and Australia, you’ll find Claudia in destinations around Europe (mostly) with her dog, Ralph 🐶. Together, they reside in sunny (ish) Brighton. ⛅

Based in the West Country with an extensive background in all things People & Talent, Donna has expertise for days. She landed at Ortus initially as an advisor and is now ready to jump in head first as our first Head of People. 👪

When she isn’t working, you will find her nagging her teenage sons to load the dishwasher, walking on a Cornish beach with her favourite child and furbaby Digby or nipping for a March-October 🥶cold-water🥶 swim in the Channel. Her biggest passion in life is finding the ‘ultimate pasty of all time’ in Cornwall and luckily for her, there are still around 500 more places she hasn’t tried yet. 🤤

Fresh from the Southampton FC football pitch, Demetri joins us off the back of one of the fastest-growing Fintech platforms in the world. With a competitive nature and experience with all kinds of businesses such as Amazon, Disney and Coca-Cola, he is ready to climb aboard the Ortus Talent ship. ⚽️

When he isn't working, you can find Demetri scouting the next warm climate to explore, getting up at 4 am to go to the gym and reading the newest self-help book, it's safe to say he is all about bettering himself. And if you're lucky, you might even catch him at a modelling shoot in the Big Smoke. 🏙

Simona is a digital nomad based in the surfing capital of thePhilippines 🇵🇭. After 12 years of hustle and bustle in the city of London, she went traveling in 2019 and… still hasn’t come back 🏝.

Simona was the first Ortus Talent hire after it launched in March 2021 💻. With work in corporate HR and recruitment teams, she has a very diverse background (from recruitment to employment law and payroll and subject matter expert of SMCR) 🤜🏻🤛🏽.

Shea is a self-proclaimed jack of all trades, it's safe to say he knows a thing or two about a thing or two. With previous experience headhunting sales and marketing talent for high-growth tech companies, he is ready to dive head-first into the world of Ortus Talent. 🤩

With a never-ending bucket list, when Shea isn't pairing clients with dream hires, you can find him pursuing his digital nomad lifestyle (thanks remote working 😉) or behind the mic on a new podcast episode. 🎙

Born and raised in sunny Brighton, Angus brings over 5 years of recruitment experience to the Ortus Talent Team. After completing his degree at Leeds University, he spent just shy of two years teaching and travelling in Vietnam, so be sure to ask him about all the crazy street food he ate! Having wanted to be a stuntman when he was younger, Angus knows with high risk comes high reward and is ready to join the Ortus rocketship. 🇻🇳

When he isn't working, you can find the Brighton and Hove FC fan enjoying a beer on the beach… when the sun is out that is! And on a slightly more common, overcast day in the South, he can be spotted sitting in front of a chess board or listening to either the Football Ramble Podcast or The Last Podcast To The Left! ♟⚽️

Abby is a seasoned pro when it comes to Executive Assisting, having done so for a large portion of her career so far. Hailing from the big finance and investment banking world, she has firmly found her place supporting the compelling chaos of start-ups. 🤩

When Abby isn’t working, on a sunny day (rare we know 😉) you can find her chasing her gorgeous little boy around the Peak District. On a more common, not-so-sunny English day, you can find her listening to a variety of ‘lighthearted’ true crime podcasts, or heading over to Diary Of A CEO for a bit of Midday inspiration. 🎙

Freshly exported from New Zealand with a background in social media and general management for a busy hair salon in Wellington, Georgia joined our marketing team in August 2022 and is already making massive waves. 🎉

When she isn't busy hustling for the next TikTok trend, you'll find her listening to a mix of Shania Twain, GLEE and Chase Atlantic 🎧, competing in Minecraft tournaments or getting overly passionate about the latest Formula One race. 🏎🦡
