Tristan Thompson

Director of Contract
About Me

Professional Background

I began my journey in technology recruitment back in 2004—when I had a full head of hair! Fast forward 18 years, with far less hair, I joined Chapman Tate in 2022 to launch our contract division. Since then, I’ve been focused on helping clients navigate the ever-evolving tech landscape by connecting them with top-tier contract talent across our core towers (specialisms).

What's It Like To Work With Me

I believe in a consultative approach to recruitment. For me, recruitment is never just about filling roles, it’s about understanding your long-term goals and making meaning matches. That's why I prioritise building long-term partnerships. Whether you're an organisation looking for niche IT talent or a candidate chasing your dream role, I aim to make the recritment process smooth - and even fun!

A Bit More About Me

Outside of work, I'm usually in the gym by 4:30am (yes, really!) before my kids wake up, doing my best to stay fit and healthy.

A fun fact about me was that I was once babysat by Bob Geldof and Paula Yares, which makes for a pretty unique icebreaker!
