Veteran-owned recruiting firm placing cleared engineers, technologists and finance leaders in defense technology and accounting roles for clients nationwide.
Osprey Talent Solutions is a veteran-owned recruiting firm founded in 2019 and headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, serving clients nationwide. It places professionals across two specialised practice areas. Osprey Defense Solutions (ODS) covers cleared staffing and mission-critical roles spanning software engineering, cybersecurity, C5ISR and program management for the defence technology and government sectors. Osprey Finance & Accounting Solutions (OFAS) connects organisations with finance and accounting leaders, from CFOs to CPAs and auditors.
The firm was founded by Scott C. Handley, a former Navy Hospital Corpsman and Naval Officer, whose 20+ years of experience sit at the intersection of leadership and talent. That biography is not incidental: the company draws on a leadership heritage spanning multiple generations of military service and maintains deep roots in the military community - an asset for candidates holding or seeking security clearances, and for employers who depend on them.
Osprey describes its approach as customised and high-touch, prioritising long-term fit over transactional placements and honest, transparent communication with both employers and candidates. For client organisations, direct placements are priced at 10% of candidate base salary.
