We Build Teams, You Build Companies

From leadership hires to full team build-outs, we deliver the builders behind your business.

Why TalentHub

Network of proven recruiters + AI platform, founder-led expertise

Co-founder Murray Clarke has led three tech-focused recruitment agencies – all of which achieved successful exits. A hands-on recruiting leader, he has delivered senior executive search across the Asia-Pacific region.
His experience includes helping VMware scale in Japan and across APAC, as well as building an agency business with onsite RPO operations covering both high-volume and specialist hiring.
With a partner network of Asia-Pacific’s top recruiters, TalentHub Partners covers every major market and every technology sector – consumer, enterprise, industrial, energy, and services – across all levels of hire your business needs.
Our partners bring the best of both worlds: external search firm expertise combined with in-house recruiting experience at leading companies such as Google, AWS, VMware, Microsoft, Red Hat, and Dell.
It all starts with identifying and attracting great leaders, then continues with tracking and hiring high-performing contributors.
We deliver executive search when it’s mission-critical, specialist search when a standout performer is required, and embedded RPO – full or part-time – to meet high-volume needs.

About Us

We Do Three Things

Our Services

Leadership Search

Find the Builders your business needs to scale. Our AI-enhanced, data-driven approach connects you with executives who drive strategic growth and create lasting value.

We focus on leaders who are true Builders – setting direction, attracting top talent, and transforming performance. With experience delivering senior searches across APAC, we combine traditional headhunting with our proprietary AI tools to assess fit against your success criteria and deliver shortlists that give your business a long-term edge.

Embedded RPO

Seamlessly integrate TalentHub into your hiring ecosystem for scalable, long-term results. Our embedded RPO model provides dedicated recruiters and intelligence that strengthen your internal team’s capabilities.

Unlike traditional RPO, our model is technology-led – powered by TalentHub’s proprietary AI platform. From referral mapping and generation to end-to-end recruitment delivery, we embed the tools and people that help your business hire better, faster, and smarter.

Specialist Search

Discover high-performing talent in your own backyard. We combine market insights and local networks across APAC and Japan to connect you with professionals who deliver impact from day one.

Our proprietary referral mapping tools help target proven performers and support the hire even when they don’t come via referral. And when needed, we deliver through traditional search and headhunting – ensuring every key role gets covered.
