Fintech

We partner with fintech companies at every stage from early-growth platforms building their first leadership team to scaled organizations professionalizing operations and preparing for acquisition, partnership, or public markets. Our focus is on recruiting executives and functional leaders who can bridge innovation with institutional rigor. 


We understand the unique tension fintech firms face with growth versus control, speed versus compliance, disruption versus durability. 

Our Experience

We advise fintech companies across a broad range of business models, including: 


  • Payments and Merchant Services 
  • Digital Banking and Lending Platforms 
  • WealthTech, InsurTech, and Capital Markets Technology 
  • Risk, Fraud, Compliance, and RegTech Platforms 
  • B2B Infrastructure and Financial Data Providers 
  • Fintech-enabled Services and Hybrid Models 


Our work spans venture-backed startups, PE-backed platforms, and strategic divisions within established financial institutions. 

Our Differentiated Approach

Fintech hiring fails when firms prioritize novelty over judgment. We take a different view. 

Our approach includes: 


  • Evaluating candidates on execution, not hype 
  • Understanding regulatory exposure and control frameworks 
  • Advising on org design as companies move from build to scale 
  • Market intelligence on compensation, equity, and leadership migration 


We act as an advisor, helping clients avoid costly bad hires while building leadership teams that can withstand scrutiny from regulators, investors, and partners. 


In fintech, early momentum is easy to generate. Durability is not. The difference is leadership. We help fintech companies hire leaders who can scale platforms, earn institutional trust, and build businesses that last beyond the next funding round.
