The agency we wished existed.

Founded by Danny Buglione after seven years in tech recruitment, Flotech is the agency built around how candidates and clients actually want to be treated.

The agency model is broken. Junior consultants spamming fifty CVs per role. Accounts changing hands every six months. Recruiters who've never written a line of code briefing on senior engineering roles. We've all seen it — and we've all been on the receiving end of it.

Flotech is the opposite. A small team of senior, specialist recruiters who only work in AI and tech. Real conversations with people we know by name. No spray-and-pray. No volume targets. Just thoughtful matching between brilliant builders and the companies they actually want to work for — backed by a combined network of 8,000+ specialists across London, the Nordics and USA.

If that sounds like the kind of agency you'd want to work with — on either side of the table — let's talk.

At our core, we're career partners — not just recruiters. Every placement is more than a job. It's a hire that changes the trajectory of a company.
Our founding principle

"Flotech get it. We needed a Senior ML Engineer who could ship production systems — not someone who'd just read the paper. They had three quality shortlist candidates on our desk within eight days. We hired number two."
