Spinnaker Search

Spinnaker Search is a professional search and staffing firm founded in 2012 in Paoli, PA, with a mission to raise the bar in professional search by building true partnerships rather than just filling roles. Operating under the philosophy of "Making Hiring Human Again™," they specialize in Information Technology recruitment with offices serving Greater Philadelphia and Central Florida while maintaining national reach.

Spinnaker Search takes a relationship-first approach to recruiting, believing that despite increasing automation and AI in the industry, recruiting remains fundamentally a human business. The firm specializes in senior-level Information Technology talent placement through direct-hire, contract/temp, and retained search engagements, serving organizations from cutting-edge startups to Fortune 500 enterprises across multiple industries.

The company has built strong talent networks in Software Engineering, Infrastructure Engineering, and Project Management nationwide. Their expertise spans both direct placement and contract staffing, with the capability to serve as an employer in all 50 states. In 2022, they expanded their operations by establishing an office in Orlando, FL, bringing the same commitment to building deep, trusted networks in Central Florida that they've cultivated in Greater Philadelphia.

At Spinnaker, the team positions themselves as more than recruiters—they are relationship builders and storytellers who take time to understand each client's unique culture and challenges. Their process goes beyond job descriptions and resumes, focusing on gaining a holistic understanding of job opportunities and team cultures to identify candidates who can make immediate impact.

The firm's approach emphasizes cultivating meaningful relationships that grow companies and advance careers, understanding that successful candidates are more than just their skills on paper. They focus on how those skills can be best utilized to achieve team goals and drive organizational success.
