Hi, I'm Emma

I help tech companies hire, grow and keep the people who drive their growth

I started Talent Partnership Consulting in 2017 after almost a decade building talent functions from the inside. I had seen what happens when hiring is treated as admin rather than strategy: missed targets, expensive agency bills and leaders who never quite land.

Since then I have worked with start-ups, scale-ups and global companies including Kong, Confluent and Citrix. My focus is go-to-market teams: the sales, partner and customer leaders whose hires make or break a growth plan.

I also sit on the expert panel for the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Modernising Employment (APPG MODE), with the Better Hiring Institute.

Founder, CEO

Founded by Emma Broadway, Talent Partnership Consulting was born from her belief in the transformative power of collaboration and the increasing need to put people at the heart of processes especially in the most innovative of businesses.

Where I've made a difference

Microsoft, D&I Programme Manager, EMEA: designed inclusive hiring training for 1,000+ hiring managers and led Women Think Next, which brought 50 women into Microsoft in six months.

Microsoft, Recruitment Manager: cut agency spend in the partner business by 40% (£600K) in a year and won the Global Lead Talent Acquisition Manager award. Mentored start-ups in Microsoft Ventures.

The Curve Group, Director of RPO: founding partner of a new RPO division, growing it from £250K to £3M in three years and leading a team of 15.

Ochre House (now Cielo), Account Executive: halved hiring costs for Bupa in year one and won over 180 hiring managers to a new way of recruiting.

MeVitae, Global Talent Advisor (2019–2026): built a competency framework for start-ups alongside the world's first anonymisation API.

A trusted network when you need more

Bigger projects sometimes need more than one person. I work with a hand-picked network of sales experts, executive coaches, HR specialists and AI-in-HR practitioners, many of them Microsoft partners. You get one point of contact and the right expertise for each part of the job.
