About the firm
A small firm, on purpose.
Timothy Patrick recruits hard-to-find technology specialists, senior leaders and quota-carrying salespeople. We’re based in the Philadelphia region and recruit nationwide.
01Why small
The person who takes the brief finishes it.
We keep the firm small so the work stays close. A limited number of searches at a time means each one gets the attention it was sold with, and the person who takes your brief is the person who finishes it.
02Principles
Four principles we work to.
- 1
Say what we think
If a role can’t be filled as written, we say so before you commit.
- 2
Write it down
The brief, the market read and every candidate’s case are written, so you can disagree with something specific.
- 3
Fewer, better
A short list with reasons beats a long list without them.
- 4
Treat candidates the way we treat clients
Consent, candour and a reply.
03Who leads the firm
Managing Partner, Tim Davin.

Timothy Patrick Recruiting is led by Managing Partner Tim Davin, a talent acquisition and recruiting professional. He has recruited across home improvement, real estate, technology, sales, marketing and operations.
His background spans agency recruiting (he previously recruited at Frank Recruitment Group), corporate talent acquisition, and building scalable recruiting processes for growing organizations. He has helped grow a home improvement company from about $15M to about $85M in revenue, recruiting to build out its sales and marketing workforce from about 35 to more than 225. The work spans high-volume hiring, specialized searches, sourcing, interviewing, talent pipelines and putting recruiting systems in place.
His approach is relationship-driven. He works out what the business actually needs, beyond the job description, then finds people who fit both the role and the company.
