About Us
Fenway was founded by veterans of the data and AI industry. They’ve spent the last 20 years building highly skilled data teams and have seen firsthand the challenges of attracting, recruiting and retaining the best talent in a highly competitive market.
Over the years, they grew increasingly frustrated with the slow pace of recruitment, the lack of expertise and understanding of the skills required to successfully place a data expert and wildly escalating commissions that, with each passing year, seemed more undeserved.
So, Fenway was born: a recruitment firm that wants to revolutionise the art of the precision placement. Our purpose is not just to capitalise on an existing gap in the market but to truly revolutionise how recruitment is done; to lead a shift from outdated recruitment practices to a more holistic, value-adding, long-term resourcing approach.
And why are we so transparent with our model? We are aware that if we do this right, the market will eventually catch up. That’s not a bad thing, as we will have changed the game and left the world a better place than we found it.
Vision and Values
To create a new standard of excellence in precision placements. We do this by cultivating deep relationships with clients and candidates and leveraging the right blend of expertise to deliver long-term, high-value resourcing solutions.
