Bio
William Collins
We started working with Nathan at a time when we were scaling up rapidly, and needed assistance in ramping up hiring at a faster rate than we could grow our internal team to handle. Having not worked with agencies in the past, the company was concerned about seeing a drop in quality - but Nathan made sure that this wasn't the case. He has delivered consistent quality, and has proven to be an effective and valuable partner to us. He is honest and candid in the information that he provides, and this helps us to make better informed decisions. Having been very selective in our choice of partners, I'm pleased to say that we made a good decision with Source Control - and would recommend him to anyone looking for external support in their Engineering hiring.

Nathan worked with me to find my next role. I found him very transparent about the process involved, clear in managing expectations around time frame involved and the role we were looking at. Responsive to queries and took the initiative to resolve issues himself and make sure everything was progressing smoothly. I would be very happy to work with him again, not just because he found me a role, but because the friendly and straightforward nature of the way he works makes it easy and pleasant to work with.
