MAYDAY was founded with a simple belief: recruitment should feel human. When we opened our doors, we didn’t want to be the biggest agency, but we did want to be the one people remembered for how we made them feel. For showing up. For caring. For doing the right thing, even when it took more time or effort.

What started as three founders around a kitchen table has grown into a national team of specialists across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane all united by one mindset: put people first; the impact is felt far beyond the placement.

The Technology Gap We Couldn’t Ignore.

As technology hiring accelerated across Australia, MAYDAY saw a growing gap in the market: businesses needed a recruitment partner who genuinely understood the pace of change across tech, digital and transformation — not just someone matching keywords to CVs.

That gap became MAYDAY Technology.

Launched in 2025, MAYDAY Technology was built to bring deeper market expertise, stronger partnerships and a more specialist approach to technology recruitment across Australia.



Today, MAYDAY Technology partners with organisations across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Australia-wide, delivering specialist recruitment solutions across software engineering, cloud & infrastructure, cybersecurity, data & AI, project services, digital, product and executive technology leadership.

Meet Carl, Managing Director of MAYDAY Technology.

Carl brings over a decade of experience in technology, digital and data recruitment, with a clear focus on how capability, leadership and business outcomes intersect.

He leads with a calm, commercially minded approach and is trusted by clients and candidates for his ability to cut through complexity and focus on what good looks like in practice, not just on paper.

Carl partners with organisations across enterprise, government and high-growth environments to deliver technology leaders and specialists who can drive transformation, lift capability and create long-term impact.

His focus is simple: build trusted relationships and deliver talent that makes a measurable difference.
