Jo Dalton

Founder, Entrepreneur and Investor, Jo is recognised as one of the most trusted talent advisors in the UK and Europe. Her unrivalled experience hiring leadership talent and building boards has contributed to the success of (both existing and soon-to-be) tech unicorns globally.

In 2011, as one of the only female leaders in a male-dominated industry, Jo built JD&Co fuelled by a desire to disrupt the traditional executive search landscape and break outdated methodologies. She pioneered new ways of working that many have been inspired to follow, and today JD&Co has a hard-earned reputation as the leading headhunting and people advisory firm in Europe. She guides and encourages the team as they build world-class leadership teams for some of the fastest-growing tech fuelled brands and best places to work in the world.

Jo is also a proud, long-term supporter and judge of the Great British Entrepreneur Awards and donates her spare time to mentoring the next generation of female leadership talent as an active member of the Alma Angel network.

When she's away from her work, Jo will be busy exploring new ways of health hacking and wellbeing. A self-confessed pre-owned fashion devotee and book-nerd, Jo is our #1 go-to for book or podcast recommendations.
