Following significant growth both organically and via M&A activity, a major broker/MGA and their PE backers required 4 Non-Executive Directors (NED’s) to join them within Insurance, Risk, Broking, and Audit. Using our extensive network of Executives and market connections, we were able to quickly engage with and secure a pool of well-respected sector veterans who brought sector-leading expertise to the relevant committees.

Our commitment to building partnerships with both clients and candidates alike sees us work as long-term strategic recruitment and talent partners on a consultative basis rather than a quick transactional fix. We aim to ensure that candidates always have a positive experience regardless of whether they are successful. Our investment in technology and our staff results in innovative, tailored hiring processes supported by access to the latest skills assessment tools, onboarding and interview platforms.

We are also committed to inclusion and diversity with a key objective to attract, promote and engage with candidates that will drive diverse talent pools, supporting our clients to close the diversity gap in both technology and insurance.
