UX designer recruitment
Hire the right UX or product designer in 5 hours of your time
Hiring a designer with the right experience and skillset can cost a lot of time. With a recruiter it sometimes costs even more time, as they are usually not equipped to assess designers. That’s why I started Found UX.
Two-in-one solution
I developed a hybrid approach in which I not only handle the recruitment but also 95% of the candidate assessment, and I have spent years refining it.
Assessing UX designers requires specialist knowledge that can only be gained by practicing the craft itself. Most recruiters have 0 days of experience in UX.
I worked on apps, web apps, websites, design systems, and physical products for Schiphol, Philips, Adidas, e.g.. 10 years in-house and 10 years as a freelancer.
I recruit high-quality candidates and handle 95% of the technical assessment. Clients typically hire candidate 1 or 2.
Less noise
I work autonomously during the recruitment and the assessment. After the intake, you continue to work undisturbed. We won't be in touch until I have found an excellent match.
1 hour
I ask you the right questions and develop a converting vacancy.

My clients rarely lose a candidate during this phase.
Smooth experience
I strive for an optimal experience for clients and candidates. I leverage my knowledge of UX and service design to ensure a pleasant, clear, and high-quality process.
Genuinely impressive
We were hiring for a Product Designer role, and had been searching for several months without finding the right fit. It was a tough, frustrating process.
Roy turned that around fast. He understood exactly what we needed right away, put together a really solid vacancy, and had a strong candidate in front of us within the first week.
By the second week, the offer was accepted and signed. The whole process, start to finish, took less than two weeks.
It was fast, efficient, and genuinely impressive. I'd recommend Roy to any leader trying to fill a product designer role.
(Super) fast
We were trying to hire a Senior Product Designer already for over 6 months, going through 2 extensive rounds, without a positive outcome.
Seeing his own background in UX we understood this could be different and we took the plunge. And how happy are we that we did!
After a thorough intake, a well thought through vacancy and even some weekend work, Roy had already found a great candidate within a week. Conversations were planned immediately and we made an offer in the same week.
Roy was great to work with: positive, knowledgeable, critical and (super) fast. I would definitely recommend him.
Great fit
I am the Head of Product at a medtech startup in Amsterdam. We have a suite of applications for medical professionals.
Roy helped us hire a Product Designer for a permanent position in our company. Having worked with Roy himself as a Product Designer in the past, I know firsthand the depth of his expertise. It clearly shows in how he identifies talent.
He provided high-quality candidates; I just needed to take the last step. He offloaded a tremendous amount of work for us, which is exactly what I was looking for: subject matter knowledge and effectiveness.
The designer we hired through Roy was a great fit. Great skills, and a great match with our company culture. If you're looking to hire UX professionals in the Netherlands, Roy is the person to talk to.
Best I’ve worked with
I'm a Product Designer with 16 years of experience. Throughout my career, I've applied for many UX roles and worked with numerous recruiters. My experience with Roy has been by far the best.
It's clear that he is an experienced UX professional himself, which sets him apart. His expertise in UX shaped the way he approached the process. Everything was thoughtfully structured, unlike anything I've experienced with other recruiters.
If you are a UX leader in the Netherlands considering working with Roy, don't hesitate. He is the best I've worked with so far.
