About us

Through many years of working within the recruitment sector, the last decade of which being within the IT Channel, it became apparent that there were many aspects of the industry that needed improvement, and the need to remedy the fact that in many eyes, recruiters are a necessary evil!

What drives us

Understanding the need for a more ‘service driven’ approach, where experience, continuity, ethics and quality play the prominent role in the interactions between recruiter, employer & candidate, Reboot came to be!

With a rebooted approach, where the client and the candidate are the priority (not the fee), Reboot take a service orientated approach which provides a value-added alternative to traditional recruitment that’s tailored to fit every scenario. Consultants are targeted on QoS, clients align with our values and are qualified as stringently as our candidates (we don’t work with everyone), and the need to ensure that the end result is of the highest quality, is paramount to all.

Meet the Team

Michael Stevens

Michael was in sales from the moment he left school at 16 and gratefully seized the opportunities he was given. From starting out with independent traders to establishing himself within a nationwide business, he went on to become the company’s youngest Sales Manager and was running teams of salespeople in a highly competitive industry, turning multiple branches into high performing operations with region topping results! His journey in recruitment started in 2014 and has since worked in several complex disciplines, establishing successful desks from scratch. Michael joined IP Source / Reboot to help mould the company into the highly service orientated business it is today.

“I don’t sell, I solve problems! For companies looking for unicorns I provide market backed insights and exceptional horses, for candidates I provide opportunities aligned with their goals and the human touch that’s too often lacking in recruitment. For everyone involved I work diligently to provide results.”

Ian Pollard

Ian cut his teeth in the world of IT Sales working for a Cisco Gold partner in early 2000’s where he learnt the ways of business technology. His recruitment journey begun when he was headhunted into a technology recruitment business, and subsequently went on to build a multitude of highly successful recruitment desks and divisions. In 2016 he stepped back into IT recruitment for an industry leader where he established & ran their first and only technical division. Once having successfully delivered this, he decided to launch what is now Reboot Recruitment in 2020 to address the many shortfalls of the recruitment industry he’d experienced along the way.

“I’m professionally driven by efficiency & candour, I advocate for an approach that gets the job done in the best way & in the best time, without sacrificing the results, ‘The Path of Least Resistance’! I’ll always tell you how it is and will never shy away from a difficult conversation if it’s in your best interest.”
