About identifi Global

About identifi Global

identifi Global was founded in 2015 around a simple idea: recruitment should feel better than it often does.
Too often, the process becomes transactional. A role is opened, CVs are sent, interviews are arranged and everyone moves quickly towards the next hire.
We wanted to build something more considered.
A recruitment business that takes the time to understand the organisation behind the vacancy, the person behind the CV and what both sides genuinely need for the move to work.
Today, identifi Global is a specialist recruitment agency supporting organisations across IT and technology, cyber security, business change and transformation, and business services. We provide permanent, contract, interim and executive recruitment solutions, with particular expertise in complex, regulated and security-cleared environments where experience, trust and specialist networks really matter.

Put people at the centre

Our Candidate Promise sets out the standards every candidate should expect from us, from honest communication and interview preparation through to regular feedback and ongoing support throughout the recruitment process.
But we wanted that promise to have real accountability behind it.

Available at an exclusive rate, you’ll have access to training and certifications giving you the practical experience you need to stay ahead in today’s digital world.

That's why our consultants are rewarded based on the experience they provide to candidates, rather than purely against traditional sales KPIs.
We believe we are the only recruitment agency to structure commission in this way.
Importantly, that means the gold-standard service isn't reserved for the candidate who gets the job. Every candidate matters, and every candidate experience counts.
Because behind every application is someone's career.

 

Local roots. Global reach.

With offices in Milton Keynes and Bedford, identifi Global combines the local knowledge of a specialist recruitment agency with the reach of a national and international recruitment network.

We support businesses across Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and the wider UK, helping organisations find skilled professionals across technology, cyber security, business change and security-cleared roles.

Nationally, we support organisations involved in some of the UK's most important programmes and sectors, from Government and Defence to infrastructure, technology and projects such as Sizewell C.
And increasingly, we're helping clients take their ambitions further — supporting national growth, international expansion and access to specialist talent across global markets.

Whether it's a growing Bedfordshire business making its next key hire or an international organisation building capability in a new market, our approach remains the same:
Understand the business, understand the market and find the right people to help it grow.

A new chapter

In 2025, identifi became part of the Issured Group, bringing together two businesses with a shared focus on people, technology and organisational change.
Issured works with organisations navigating complex transformation, bringing expertise across consultancy and delivery, business change, secure technology, cyber security, training and workforce development.

Together, the Issured Group enables us to support organisations with more than specialist recruitment, bringing together expertise in consultancy, business transformation, cyber security, secure technology and workforce development.

For identifi Global, our focus remains the same: connecting talented professionals with organisations where their skills, experience and ambitions can make a meaningful difference.

Our Approach to Specialist Recruitment

We don't believe great recruitment starts with searching a database. It starts with understanding why the hire matters.
So we spend time getting beneath the job description — understanding the environment, the challenges, the team and what success will actually look like.
Sometimes that means finding someone through a network built over many years. Sometimes it means mapping a market, challenging a brief or reaching people who aren't actively looking.
Whatever the search requires, the aim remains the same: to help the right people and the right organisations find each other.

Still the same idea

identifi was founded by Gary Fay and Pete Sanders, bringing together decades of recruitment experience and a shared belief that the industry could be more personal, more accountable and more thoughtful.
Becoming part of the Issured Group has expanded what sits around us, but it hasn't changed what sits at the heart of identifi.
Better understanding. Better experiences. Better recruitment.
