What The Brixton Group does

The Brixton Group is a woman-owned technology staffing and project solutions firm founded in 1998 and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina. The company delivers temporary technology consultants, direct placements, right-to-hire arrangements, and project-based consulting (both fixed-fee/SOW and time-and-materials) primarily to large enterprise clients, including approximately 50% of the Fortune 100 across 24 US states. Service lines span contract staffing, right-to-hire, project solutions, and direct placement, with deep engagements in Financial Services, Telecommunications, Public Sector, and broader cross-industry verticals including Healthcare, Life Sciences, and Retail.

The company operates a hybrid virtual and onsite delivery model supported by satellite offices in Philadelphia and New York and a wholly-owned Indian subsidiary, Brixton Group Private Limited, established in Pune in 2020. The firm has hired 3,768 consultants since inception and runs a formal Refer-A-Friend program ($250-$500 per successful hire after 90 days) alongside an enterprise field sales motion led by a Chief Sales Officer, EVPs, and multiple Directors of Client Service & Delivery. Technology stack is intentionally lean: the company integrates third-party AI recruiting tools (Sense, ConverzAI) for candidate sourcing and engagement, and Google Maps Platform APIs for website location services; there is no proprietary platform or marketplace.

Revenue is generated through four streams: contract staffing, right-to-hire, project solutions (SOW/T&M), and direct placement, supplemented by affiliate referral payouts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based, tailored to role seniority, geography, and engagement type. The company is privately held with no external institutional investors disclosed; leadership includes founder Andrew Sobel (EVP), President Tena Sobel, COO Philip Berman, CRO Brendan Sobel, CSO Rajiv Kandukuri, and Controller Daphne Williams, with multiple senior hires from Accenture and other large consultancies. Recognition includes four consecutive Inc. 5000 awards (2012-2015) and three Charlotte Business Journal Fast 50 honors (2012-2013).
