ABOUT SEAN CANNING

I’m a talent acquisition leader and founder with 15+ years’ experience building and scaling recruitment functions across games, tech and AI. From early-stage startups to global, post-IPO organisations.I spent over five years at Unity Technologies, joining during a period of hyper-growth and progressing into global talent acquisition leadership roles across Games, Cloud and real-time 3D teams, supporting the business through IPO and significant scale.Across my career, I’ve supported teams working on game development, gaming infrastructure, large-scale simulations, and AI-driven, procedural technologies.Today, I run Gamesrecruit and AI-Recruit.com, specialist talent partners built by former in-house recruiters. We embed directly into teams to deliver senior, hands-on hiring capability, operating as an extension of internal talent functions rather than a traditional agency.I typically work with founders, studio heads and senior leaders who need experienced recruitment leadership to scale teams, navigate change, or solve complex hiring challenges without building large permanent TA teams.
