"We had several conversations about the role, what the business was looking for, and how my experience was relevant. I was advised on tailoring my CV to highlight experience which was particularly relevant to the role. We had several discussions about the business, its challenges and plans for the future so I was well prepared for meeting with the CEO and other Directors."

Proof is in the Placement
Fintech Managing Director Search
A disruptive fintech brand needed a commercially astute Managing Director to drive and amplify their rapid growth. Having successfully placed their CTO and CFO, the owners trusted We Are Adam to deliver.
We conducted a "deep dive" with the senior team to understand the nuances of the MD role. This insight helped craft a compelling narrative around the brand's vision, culture, and values to attract passive candidates.
Our dedicated researchers mapped the industry landscape, identifying key targets within and beyond our existing network. In-depth interviews outlined the opportunity and allowed us to thoroughly vet interested parties.
After an extensive hiring process, we presented a shortlist of exceptional MD candidates. Our consultative approach provided insights to all stakeholders, ensuring a positive experience.
We managed offer negotiations and onboarding. The new MD was so impressed, they engaged us for additional leadership hires, noting: "A willingness to find the right candidate, not just fill a role."
"They have a simple mantra – to be a pleasure to deal with whilst not over complicating the process of finding the very best talent for clients, so hopefully you’ll want to get to know them from Adam. We’ve found We Are Adam a great fit with us to search, select and headhunt the best talent.”
