Elle Shum

Hey! I’m Elle, Co-Founder & Director @ HUG Recruitment, a next-generation digital recruitment agency specialising in placing tech talent within some of the most dynamic startups and scale-ups throughout the UK and EU.

Starting my career in 2018, I've navigated the ups and downs of the recruitment field, realising early on that this was my long-term calling. With several years of experience working with top-notch agencies in the tech sector, I've distilled the valuable knowledge I acquired and brought it to HUG with a particular emphasis on nurturing relationships and fostering a personable approach to recruitment.

When it comes to breaking in to the tech world, navigating the business world as somebody starting out, figuring out how to build the right relationships and network or just working on your confidence - I think I've done a pretty good job and would love to help others along their journey too!
