Rectec, the Copilot for HR and recruitment software buying, is announcing a major step forward in its journey with a powerful new product launch, key leadership additions, and an ambitious growth strategy aimed at redefining how businesses buy recruitment and HR software.
From MVP to Market Momentum
Founded by Rob Green, Rectec began as a mission-driven startup born out of firsthand frustration with the complexities of buying HR and recruitment tech. Rob, who led over 100 successful tech implementations across enterprises and recruited for notable brands like Reed, knew the buying process was broken. That insight led to Rectec’s MVP, meticulously iterated over the last few years.
Despite operating with minimal sales and marketing resources, Rectec has achieved extraordinary milestones:
✅ Impressive revenues
✅ 120+ vendor partnerships
✅ Over 448,000 vendor comparisons processed
✅ Supported 900+ customers, including Sky, ISS, and Accenture
Now, with a robust foundation and proven demand, Rectec is poised for scale.
Strategic Co-Founder Addition
Joining Rob at the helm is Rohan Dickinson, who steps in as Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer. Rohan brings extensive experience from scaling with category-defining tech companies such as FundApps (reg-tech leader) and Adway (social recruitment tech leader). With a unique mix of HR background, startup founder experience, and growth-stage leadership, Rohan adds deep commercial firepower to Rectec’s leadership team.
A Market-Ready Solution, Arriving at the Perfect Time
Rectec is launching its next-generation Copilot platform – a powerful, data-driven tool built to guide HR and recruitment teams through the chaos of software selection. This new product enables instant vendor matching, tailored shortlists, and deep data insights (with up to 150+ data points per vendor), solving critical pain points at every stage of the buying journey.
The market conditions couldn’t be more fitting:
🚨 25% of IT projects fail entirely
❌ 60–80% fail to meet their objectives
💸 70% exceed their budgets
⌛ Buying cycles are longer than ever, averaging 6–18 months
As buyers grow increasingly fatigued and marketplaces rise in relevance, Rectec’s timing is spot on. According to Gartner, 70% of buyers now prefer independent research and marketplaces when evaluating software. This said, Rectec importantly is designed and built to ensure both HR and recruitment vendors and buyers succeed!
The Next Chapter: Growth Mode
With traction, talent, and timing aligned, Rectec is entering its most exciting chapter yet. The team is actively seeking new partners, investors, and collaborators aligned with its mission to become the #1 software buying Copilot for businesses.
“Rectec was always about solving a real, painful problem. Now, with a world-class product, exceptional team, and clear market pull – we’re ready to win,” said Rob Green, Founder of Rectec.
“The future of B2B software buying is smarter, faster, and more transparent. Rectec is here to lead that charge,” added Rohan Jacob, Co-Founder & CRO.
