We partner with companies building the future.

Climate and sustainability hiring isn't generalist tech hiring. The talent pool is narrower, the mission filter is real, and the best candidates are choosing between a handful of companies rather than a hundred.

We work across the sectors below, which means we already know who's building what, and who's ready to move.

  • 🌱 Climate Tech - carbon, measurement, mitigation
  • 🌾 AgTech - precision agriculture and supply chain
  • ♻ Circular Economy - materials, reuse, waste
  • ⚡ Clean Energy - generation, storage, grid
  • 🥗 Food Systems - alternative proteins and production
  • 🌍 Sustainability Software - reporting, ESG, compliance

About Goldenacre Partners

Scott Robertson, Founder of Goldenacre Partners
Scott Robertson Founder, Goldenacre Partners

Goldenacre Partners is a specialist recruitment firm helping climate, sustainability and mission-driven technology companies hire exceptional Product, Data and Engineering talent across the US and Europe.

I've spent over six years in technology recruitment, including a year at Meta hiring machine learning and data engineers. That year taught me what a genuinely high bar looks like, how the best technical teams actually assess people, and why so many good candidates get filtered out for reasons that have nothing to do with their ability.

Alongside that, I spent time leading new business across ESG, food and agriculture, working closely with the companies and leaders tackling these problems commercially. That is where the interest turned into something I wanted to build a business around.

Goldenacre exists because climate hiring is genuinely different. The talent pool is narrower, the mission filter is real, and the companies solving these problems deserve better than a generalist agency treating them like any other software business. I work with founders, hiring managers and leadership teams to build technical teams properly, from individual contributors through to executive hires.
