London-based Recruitment Tech Startup Secures £300k Pre-Seed Funding

Recfindr, a London startup developing an innovative recruitment management system, has successfully raised £300,000 in a pre-seed funding round. The company, founded in 2024, aims to revolutionize the hiring process by providing an all-in-one platform that gives hiring managers complete control over recruitment.

1. Platform Features:

  - Designed to reduce hiring time for urgent roles by 50%

  - Provides hiring managers with access to specialist recruiters

  - Streamlines the entire recruitment process in one platform

2. Market Impact:

  - Addresses the "deeply fragmented" UK recruitment agency market

  - Over 160 recruitment agencies have already joined the platform

3. Funding Details:

  - Led by SFC Capital, the UK's leading SEIS fund for innovative companies

  - Participation from high-profile angel investors, including Ezequiel Canestrari, European COO of Clearbank

4. Fund Utilization:

  - Primary focus on hiring engineering talent

  - Further development and enhancement of the platform

Alexandra Chirica, the founder of Recfindr, emphasizes the importance of specialized recruitment, stating, "You wouldn't hire a generalist to perform complex surgery, or defend you in court or build the software for your company. And yet we continue to hire generalist recruiters." She believes Recfindr will empower hiring managers by connecting them with the right specialists for their needs.

The successful funding round and the rapid adoption by recruitment agencies signal a promising future for Recfindr in the evolving landscape of recruitment technology.
