What We Do
We work across technology, finance, and professional services, placing permanent, contract, and interim talent at every level — from specialist hires to board-level appointments.
For senior and board-level appointments.
When getting the hire right is non-negotiable, retained search gives you dedicated resource, structured methodology, and a genuine partnership throughout the process.
What's included
Fast, flexible hiring. No placement, no fee.
For mid-level hires where speed and quality both matter. We draw on our active network and intelligent sourcing to deliver pre-screened, well-matched candidates quickly.
What's included
Specialist talent placed at pace.
Whether you need a Finance Director to lead a transformation programme or a Tech Lead to deliver a critical build, we mobilise experienced interim professionals quickly.
What's included
Data to sharpen your hiring strategy.
Informed hiring decisions start with robust market data. We provide salary benchmarking, talent mapping, and competitor analysis to help you attract and retain the best people.
What's included
Our Process
01
We invest time upfront to understand your business, culture, and the specific outcomes you need from each hire. This informs every decision we make throughout the search.
02
We build a comprehensive picture of the available talent landscape — who is in the market, who isn't, where the best people are, and what it will take to attract them.
03
Proactive, direct outreach to high-calibre candidates — including those not actively looking. Every candidate is rigorously screened before they reach you.
04
You receive a focused shortlist with detailed assessor notes — not a pile of CVs. We manage all interview logistics and keep every candidate engaged throughout.
05
We manage the offer process, handle counter-offers, and support onboarding to maximise the chance of a successful start. We stay involved after day one.
Sectors
From early-stage scale-ups to enterprise, we place technology leaders who can build, lead, and deliver.
Senior finance professionals placed across PE-backed, listed, and high-growth private businesses.
Operations, strategy, and functional leadership for complex, fast-moving organisations.
