CEO

Zac’s journey began as the founder of GradTouch, a Manchester-based tech start-up and graduate careers platform.

He’s since acquired and scaled 8 other businesses, forming Unseen. Zac now focuses his time on meeting with other founders and business leaders who have the potential to join and drive forward the group’s mission of reimagining talent strategies and transforming career journeys.

As someone with a Manchester United season ticket and an unhealthy obsession with Diet Coke, Zac is living proof that even the best of us have our flaws.

COO

Dee is an organisational psychologist who’s spent her career helping fast growing companies build effective working cultures that are centred around operational excellence. A long-time partner for VC corporations such as Seedcamp, Frontline Ventures and Enterprise Ireland and with behemoths like Meta, Airbnb and Twitter under her belt, Dee knows what it takes to transform and scale a company from the inside out.

Not only does Dee set the standard for how Unseen and our brands put ourselves out there into the world, she’s also a qualified yoga teacher and is casually completing her Clinical Doctorate on the side. As you do.

When not embroiled in the finance operations of Unseen, John can normally be found on a weekend somewhere in the UK with a downhill mountain bike centre.
