IT & Software recruitment across the North West
We help companies across the North West hire technology professionals through clear communication and a straightforward process, shaped by a strong understanding of the local area.
Fellstone Recruitment is a specialist IT recruitment business across the North West, focused on what works in practice - not just on paper.
Based in Silverdale, Fellstone Recruitment works with technology professionals and companies across rural villages, towns and cities across the North West. The approach is straightforward - clear communication from the beginning, with a process that stays focused on what’s relevant. Roles are shared with a clear outline of salary, technology and expectations, so there is a strong understanding from the start of what the company is looking for.
Most hiring challenges come down to misalignment. Roles may look right on paper, but don’t always work in practice - whether that’s unclear expectations, unrealistic commuting requirements, or hybrid setups that don’t fit how people actually live and work. This often leads to wasted time for both companies and candidates, with conversations and interviews that don’t lead to the right outcome. The focus is on getting that alignment right from the start- so roles are clearly defined and genuinely work in practice.
For companies, that means taking the time to properly understand each role - its tech stack, expectations and how it fits within the team - so introductions are relevant and aligned from the outset.
For candidates, it means being approached with opportunities that genuinely make sense - based on experience and how they want to work.
You’ll deal with one person throughout, with a consistent point of contact who understands what you’re looking for and keeps you updated from the initial conversation through to follow-up after placement.
Not just a CV - the right fit.

Clear roles . Straightforward process . The right fit
Fellstone Recruitment was built around a more considered approach to IT recruitment across the North West.
Based in Silverdale, with a strong understanding of the region - including how location, commuting and working patterns affect what roles are genuinely suitable, particularly across towns and rural areas where these factors can have a greater impact.
By working with a smaller number of companies and technology professionals, the process stays focused on clear communication, well-defined roles and what’s actually relevant.
Time is taken to properly understand each role - its technology, expectations and how it fits within the team, as well as whether the role works in practice, taking into account location and commuting - so opportunities are aligned from the outset.
“The aim is simple - to keep things clear from the start, focus on what’s relevant and ensure the right fit without unnecessary back-and-forth.”
Founder, Fellstone Recruitment

Clear From The Start

A more personal approach to recruitment.
Fellstone Recruitment was built to support companies looking for a more considered approach - moving away from high-volume transactional hiring.
The focus is working with a smaller number of clients and taking the time to properly understand each role - its technology, level of experience and how someone fits within the team.
Every introduction is made with long-term fit in mind, not quick placements.
Because the right hire isn’t just about skills - it’s about finding someone who fits the role, the team, and how you work day to day.
