The go-to recruiter for the Django community since 2008

Who we are:

Foxley Talent is the go-to recruiter for the Django Community globally.

(if we say it enough it will come true)

We have worked with companies in the UK, across Europe and in the United States... and have helped job seekers from six different continents.

Due to our community first approach, most of our clients and job seekers come to us via recommendation or in person at events. This allows us to build relationships with Django developers throughout their careers, not just when they are looking for a new job.

We have had an involvement in the Django ecosystem since 2008 when our founder first started helping Django Developers find work. We have helped over 350 people in that time.

You will not find a recruiter with more experience in this space.

Committed to the Django Community worldwide, we give 5% of our annual profits to the Django Software Foundation and sponsor the major Django conferences in Europe and the United States.

Our proudest moment since our inception was being approved as a Silver Member of the DSF in November 2022.

Our Mission

Is to become the go-to recruiter for the Django Community worldwide by providing meaningful career opportunities and helping our clients hire a diverse and outstanding workforce.

On this journey, we will give back into the ecosystem wherever possible and help to sustain the ongoing work of the Django Software Foundation and it's wider community.
