About The Company

Created in 2018, Haptic was established as a gaming recruitment agency that wanted to do things differently.

But, what does that actually mean?

but their culture, passion, and ideas.

This enables us to provide a specialist service that is rooted in care, knowledge, and trust. That makes us pretty great at what we do!
