Origin8tive x Oscar

Origin8tive is a leading provider focused on assuring national infrastructure within the cyber landscape. Given the sensitivity of their work, the business depends on accessing exceptional technical talent quickly, discreetly, and without compromising on security standards.

Oscar and Origin8tive have partnered for several years, working together to source and secure talented professionals across a variety of technical teams within the business.

THE CHALLENGE

Origin8tive's work in national infrastructure assurance means many of the roles they fill require a high level of security clearance, specifically UKIC Developed Vetting (eDV). This narrows the available talent pool sharply and demands a recruitment partner with an established network of cleared, credible professionals.

It was this combination of scarcity and sensitivity that led Origin8tive to Oscar as a trusted, go-to recruitment partner.

THE APPROACH

Recognising the specialist nature of the roles, Oscar developed targeted headhunting designed for high-clearance, hard-to-fill positions. Our National Security & Defence (NS&D) specialists worked continuously to identify and present suitable candidates, drawing on deep sector knowledge and an established network of cleared professionals.

Over the course of the partnership, this consistent, specialist approach has built a relationship with Origin8tive founded on trust and quality, allowing Oscar to move fast when it matters most.

THE RESULTS

Working in close collaboration with Origin8tive, Oscar has successfully placed a number of both security-cleared and non-cleared professionals across multiple technical divisions within the business.

"Origin8tive are a growing business based in Cheltenham looking for high-quality candidates who have DV Clearance. Oscar has been assisting us with our recruitment requirements over the past few months.
