On a mission to close the gender gap in tech

The tech industry is faced with a hiring challenge. Hiring Engineers in itself is a difficult task, let alone hiring women for your product and engineering teams

That’s where Xena comes in. Work with us and gain access to our gender-diverse talent pool including Senior Engineer, Product and Leadership talent.

What we do

We only recruit women

The market is calling out for diversity and we’re listening. We hire women in Engineering and Product for companies who are serious about closing the gender gap on their tech team. We’ve been working in this space since our inception, offering diverse talent pools to our clients.

Focus on women in tech and women in leadership

Our passion is women in tech, at all levels. Whether it’s an Engineer, Lead, Principal or Executive level we believe a higher concentration of women from diverse backgrounds need to reside and we champion their success.

Mentorship and support for girls in STEM

Increase job well-being with Xena’s workshops to give back to girls in STEM. We tailor live coding workshops and online mentorship to empower your employees to support the progression of women in technology.

Diversity matters

Our candidates care about equal representation in the workplace. We know 68% of women choose what company to work for based on DE&I eminence. The gender gap in technology is every employer’s responsibility.

Attract and retain diverse talent

We know how difficult it is to build diverse and inclusive teams. As long as you’re truly committed to making a change, we can help you on your journey of organisational transformation. Whether it is finding diverse talent, or building a culture that attracts and retains diverse talent. We have a track record of building highly successful teams at Europe’s leading tech companies.

Our vision

The tech industry is faced with a shortage of women. We believe every boy and girl should have the opportunity to become a creator of technology.

We’re addressing the root of the problem – the lack of girls considering technology as a career. That’s why we put 12.5% of our recruitment fees back into STEM education to support the advancement of girls in tech.
