About Us
Home » About Us
Pixel Movement is a strategic recruitment and talent advisory partner for game studios and gaming-led businesses.
We support hiring and talent acquisition across PC, Console, Mobile, gaming technology and iGaming.
We work with stealth-mode start-ups, scaling studios and established AA–AAA teams at key stages of growth, from pre-seed through to Series A–B and beyond. Our partnerships are long-term and shaped around the realities of game development, studio structure and delivery milestones.
With over 20 years of combined experience in games recruitment, we bring deep expertise across recruitment strategy, talent mapping, market intelligence and hands-on hiring delivery. We support teams across development, publishing and operations, operating as an extension of our partners’ internal hiring functions.
Rather than simply sourcing candidates, we design and execute structured hiring approaches. From defining hiring plans to managing end-to-end recruitment delivery, we help studios hire with clarity, confidence and long-term intent.
We operate through flexible, transparent partnership models aligned to a studio’s stage, priorities and ambition, including retained, project-based and percentage-based recruitment where appropriate.

I've worked with Selim for the past 2 years and have been impressed with the level of service and support received by him. Selim truly understands the needs within the gaming industry and has helped us find some of our best talent.
Andy Dowley
Selim is the most effective recruiter I have worked with. Most agencies can fill roles, but Selim can fill MOST of your roles. Candidates are thoroughly vetted and prepared, and always suitable for the roles they are recommended for.

Sel was recommended to me for hiring support by three of my ex-recruitment colleagues. At Space Ape, we needed external recruitment support, and Sel took the time to learn our business, our culture, and our team to build an excellent working relationship with us.
