Altima
We launched Altima because we were tired of founders being underserved when it came to finding their CFO. Tired of the lack of knowledge about the role, and the transformational impact it can have on a growing business. And we were tired of the same small pool of senior finance leaders being approached for the same roles. And so, we decided to do things differently. An agile and entrepreneurial search firm based on data, research, relationships and serious expertise. 20 years on and we’ve evolved from underdog to market leader in Europe. We now support companies along their whole growth curve from Series A to late stage venture and into Private Equity ownership. We’ve built partnerships with some of the world’s most respected funds, who trust us to find growth-driving CFOs for their portfolio. And over the last few years, we’ve expanded our operations in the US. We’ve built our deep expertise, a vast CFO network and a team of seriously smart humans, who deliver a best-in-class product and service to our clients.

Orbition Group
Orbition Group is a global, award-winning, executive and leadership search & advisory firm dedicated to the Data, Analytics & AI (DAAI) market. We combine board, executive and leadership search, interim and fractional advisory, leadership development and assessment, research, talent & market intelligence, and workforce advisory, all underpinned by the industry’s leading DAAI leadership community and powered by our in-house media production firm, Driven by Data Productions. Every organisation is on the journey to evidence-based decision-making, enable by DAAI, driving the next wave of innovation, transformation and growth. Consequently, it’s the most significant area of growth and investment for modern organisations. To deliver these new data initiatives and reap their benefits, businesses are making significant investments across their DAAI teams/capabilities. However, delivering meaningful impact from these investments, at the speed and scale desired has proven problematic for most organisations. Orbition Group enables organisations and their leaders to deliver improved business performance and generate competitive advantage, by unlocking greater value from those investments. We work with boards, executive teams, and CDAOs to close the gap between ambition and execution, by addressing the leadership, structure, and capability gaps that stall transformation, innovation and improved decision-making that limits ROI. While many traditional search firms remain slow, transactional and disconnected from the communities they serve, we operate at the epicentre of the DAAI ecosystem, shaping the industry. We are the only search and advisory firm in the DAAI space that amplifies credibility, trust, reach, influence, and access with an integrated, in-house media production firm. This serves as the engine behind our industry-leading podcast, global events and industry content, but also as a platform for organisations to build their own hiring brand.

Yellow Bricks Talent Search
Yellow Bricks is a specialist executive search and people strategy firm supporting Financial Services and growth-stage organisations to build leadership teams that actually work. We believe hiring doesn’t end at the offer, it’s where the real work begins. The people you appoint into senior roles shape culture, performance and risk for years to come. Get it right and businesses accelerate. Get it wrong and the damage is often invisible until it’s too late. That’s why we don’t just fill roles. We design leadership. We partner with founders, CEOs, boards and Chief People Officers who understand that their next phase of growth depends on the quality of the people they put in charge. From Chief People Officers and Finance Directors to Operations, Risk and Transformation leaders, we help organisations attract and secure senior talent who can lead through complexity, scale and change. We work quietly, intentionally and with judgement because the most important hires rarely come from job boards. We also support senior professionals who aren’t actively job-hunting, but who are ready for their next chapter. If you are trusted, well-paid and carrying real responsibility, we understand what it takes for a move to make sense and we connect you to organisations where your strengths and ambition can truly align. Alongside executive and senior search, we provide people and workforce strategy support, helping organisations align structure, leadership and capability with where the business needs to go next. Our temporary staffing division,@YBProfessionalTemps, delivers compliant, high-quality professionals across operations, finance, HR and business support. Because growth isn’t driven by strategy alone. It’s driven by who sits in the room.
