About Us

True talent solutions from someone who's been in your shoes.

Kane Poulter Talent Solutions exists to transform how businesses think about talent acquisition. 

We're not transaction-focused recruiters we're relationship-driven partners committed to your long-term hiring success. 

Founded on expertise gained from over a decade of senior talent acquisition leadership, we understand that the best hiring solutions come from genuine partnerships, not just filling roles.

Our founder, Matt, brings a unique perspective to talent solutions, over 20 years of corporate experience with more than 10 years in senior talent acquisition leadership roles.

This means Matt has sat on your side of the table, faced your challenges, and built solutions that work.

He has navigated complex stakeholder requirements, managed hiring budgets, built employer brands, and delivered everything from single critical hires to recruitment campaigns attracting thousands of candidates. 

This isn't theory – it's lived experience that Matt brings to every client partnership.
