Our Values
Trusted
Following our recent spin out, we’ve entered an exciting new chapter—still rooted in the integrity, expertise and genuine care that means we are trusted by our clients and candidates, but now with even more energy and ambition behind us.
Agile
We work hard, move fast, responding seamlessly to our clients’ needs. We pride ourselves on delivering what’s right for their business and their values, whilst maintaining our own culture and spirit.
Curious
Curiosity fuels our creativity and innovation, helping us build deeper connections with others. It drives a culture of continuous learning and growth which just makes life more interesting.
Human
We are proudly people-first. We embrace new technology and use smart tools where they make a difference – but never at the cost of real connection. We embrace inclusivity in everything we do.
ABOUT US
Our Story
We were born out of a synergy between two mission-led businesses who led the way in inclusive early careers talent acquisition. Now, as a new independent company after a spin out, our future is in our own hands.

Our Timeline

2003 Graduate Success
A graduate recruitment business, where not just hiring but setting graduates up for success in their new role was key.
2008 Bright Futures Resourcing
A change of name to reflect the addition & creation of a not-for-profit arm dedicated to aiding and enhancing the education, personal and professional development of university undergraduates, through a network of student run societies, (at its peak with Bright Futures Societies in 50 UK Universities), all linked with business organisations.


2010 MYKINDACROWD
A social enterprise start up focusing on apprenticeships and schools engagement.
2015 MYKINDAFUTURE
A meeting of minds and a merger of two companies, Bright Futures Resourcing and MyKindaCrowd, creating the leading inclusive early careers specialists, engaging young people in schools, colleges and universities, with their future careers. MKF had a strong social mission, in particular removing barriers for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds and allowing them to compete for the best jobs, with their more advantaged peers.


2019 New Investment
Puma Private Equity delivers a £multimillion investment into MKF with the aim of helping emerging talent develop employability skills whilst supporting employers to engage, recruit and retain top talent.
2021 Connectr
The business is rebranded as Connectr with further £multimillion funding from Puma Private equity as it builds on its new focus, an award-winning proprietary HR tech platform, focusing on mentoring and belonging in order to attract and retain talent.


2023 Business Unit Creation
Connectr splits into three standalone Business Units – Talent Technology, Early Engagement and Talent Acquisition.
2025 Acrobat Talent
In a spin out, the Talent Acquisition arm of Connectr becomes new company, Acrobat Talent. With a focus on Early Careers, Acrobat Talent aims to find future leaders for its clients, building inclusivity in business leadership by levelling the playing field for all its candidates.
