How we work with candidates

We work with senior professionals who are either actively looking for a new role or open to the right conversation. We do not send speculative applications on your behalf or put your CV in front of clients without your knowledge. Every introduction is discussed with you first.

Our focus is on the markets we know well: VC-backed, AIM-listed, PISCES and growth businesses across the UK. If you are a CFO, COO, General Counsel, commercial leader, or senior finance or HR professional with experience in these environments, we are likely to be a useful contact whether or not we have a live role for you right now.

We are a small firm. When you register with us, you will speak to a consultant, not a resourcer. We will give you an honest view of the market, what roles are active, and whether we are the right firm to be working with you.

What we offer

AIM businesses generate a consistent set of senior hiring needs, driven by growth, succession, governance requirements, and strategic change. These are the situations we understand best.

Discreet and confidential

We understand that most senior professionals exploring their options are doing so quietly. We treat every conversation as confidential and will never share your details without your explicit agreement.

Access to roles that are not advertised

The most significant senior appointments rarely appear on job boards. We work on a retained and exclusive basis with our clients, which means we are often the only route to the roles that matter.

Honest market perspective

We will tell you what is realistic - on salary, on timeline, and on fit - rather than what you want to hear. If we cannot help you, we will say so clearly and point you in the right direction.

The roles we recruit

We recruit senior and leadership professionals across finance, legal, operations, commercial and people functions. Our clients are growth-stage, founder-led, PE-backed, AIM-listed and PISCES businesses — so the roles we work on tend to require people who are comfortable with pace, ambiguity, and the specific demands of a business that is scaling or transitioning.

If your background fits this profile, we would like to hear from you even if there is no live role that matches right now. The best senior appointments are often made before a role is formally open.
