Founded by Emma and Lucy, two long-standing recruiters with decades of combined industry experience, Darling Moo Talent was created with a simple idea: recruitment should be about strong relationships, real expertise and finding the right person for the right business.
Having spent years working in the recruitment industry, Emma and Lucy knew what mattered to candidates and employers. But they also wanted to create something more personal, honest and human.
So, they built it themselves.
Darling Moo Talent is a boutique recruitment agency specialising in permanent and fixed-term roles across sales, marketing, administration, office management, facilities, project management, events, IT, finance, customer service and HR. The business works with organisations across a wide range of sectors, including technical and scientific communities, education and charitable organisations, and manufacturing businesses. The team particularly enjoys supporting growing businesses, using their experience and expertise to add value and make recruitment easier.
Why Darling Moo?
Darling Moo Talent is intentionally small and founder-led. Clients and candidates work directly with Emma and Lucy, without being passed between different consultants or screened by AI. Their approach is straightforward: be authentic, build genuine partnerships and prioritise quality over quick wins.
As a new business in the Cambridge ecosystem, Emma and Lucy are looking forward to getting to know the people, companies and talent that make the region such an inspiring place to work.
“We wanted to build a recruitment business that felt genuinely different - one where relationships and people come first,” say Emma and Lucy.
