Adriaan Kolff

Co-Founder and CEO at MatcHR

At MatcHR we are on a mission to unlock global talent. We believe that talent is distributed equally but opportunity is not. As a fully remote company, MatcHR helps companies find and hire the worlds best tech talent.

As a fully remote company we are able to work with the best talent across the world. By combining our local knowledge with our global service we help our partners achieve stellar growth. Whether that is through our dedicated and fully embedded sourcing teams (Sourcing as a Service), our end to end Recruitment as a Service solution or to hire remote tech talent across the world.

That’s why we’re valued by companies at all stages of their development, from early stage startups, through to scale ups and global enterprises.

We are proud to work for companies like Booking.com, Revolut, Grammarly and TikTok.

We are growing very rapidly and we are constantly looking for new employees that want to get the best out of themselves and grow their international sourcing and recruitment careers beyond their own borders of what they thought possible πŸš€!

But enough about MatcHR... Let's talk about me πŸ˜€.

I am an entrepreneur at heart with a strong focus on culture and people. In 2018 I emigrated to Kyiv, Ukraine to set up MatcHR. In our first year I grew MatcHR to 20 employees without any prior experience working or living in Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦.

I actively share my experience on entrepreneurship, sourcing and recruitment through my personal blog at Medium https://medium.com/@adriaankolff and I am a regular keynote speaker at different events.

As an investor, my passion for start ups, new ideas and technology perfectly come together. The opportunity to help entrepreneurs realise their dreams and being part of that journey is a gift 🎁.

After attending 4 Burning Man's πŸ”₯ in a row, completing a full Ironman πŸŠπŸš΄β€β™‚οΈπŸƒ, in 2018 and raising >30K in 5 weeks by walking 24 hours, I know that "Anything is possible" as long as you believe in it.

For 2021 my personal goals are:

πŸ“š Read 24 books (see my booklist on Medium)

πŸƒβ€β™‚β€ Run the NY marathon (if possible)

πŸš€ Double MatcHR in size and turnover

❀️ Continue 24 hours as a non profit and set up "24 hours for the Planet"

πŸ’Έ Grow my passive income above my cost level

✍️ Write a blog every month and have 6 of them published externally

πŸ† Continue to be a vegetarian and have at least 3 plant based meals per week

πŸ’ͺ Exercise at least 4 times per week

πŸ’ Marry Olya :)
