Levlr

Levlr is transforming recruitment by focusing on the 98 percent of candidates who are often left behind. Co-founders Mike and Neil are building a fairer system that redirects people into future opportunities rather than rejecting them. The platform integrates with existing applicant tracking systems, reducing CV sifting time by up to 80 percent. With clients like Champneys Health Spa, Levlr is helping employers improve outcomes and is on a mission to support one million people into work or education by 2028.

Levlr is a recruitment platform with a clear social mission. While most tools help employers find the top 2 percent of candidates, Levlr focuses on the 98 percent who are often overlooked. Rather than rejecting applicants, Levlr redirects them into learning pathways, future roles, or relevant feedback that helps them grow.

Co-founders Mike and Neil bring decades of experience in recruitment, education, and digital innovation. Their goal is to create a more human and inclusive hiring experience. Levlr integrates directly with existing applicant tracking systems, reducing CV sifting time by up to 80 percent and helping employers retain talent in their ecosystem.

The platform is already live with paying clients like Champneys Health Spa and is running pilots with major employers managing hundreds of thousands of applications. By 2028, Levlr aims to help one million people move into meaningful work or education, tackling inequality in hiring at scale.
