When a portfolio company needs product leadership immediately, we place leaders who step in at pace. No onboarding curve. No learning the VC and PE environment. Ready from the first board meeting.
Interim product leaders placed and operational within two to three weeks of mandate.
Product leaders who've operated in VC- and PE-backed businesses before — no time lost explaining the model.
Clean transition to permanent when the time is right. No conflict of interest.
Speed is the point. But speed without quality is just risk. Our interim process is compressed without cutting the steps that matter.
We align on the mandate in a single call — the role, the duration, the specific deliverables, and the profile required. We don't spend three weeks writing a brief for an interim placement.
We go straight to our network of available interim product leaders. These are operators we know personally — people who've held comparable roles in VC- and PE-backed businesses and are available now or within weeks.
We assess for immediate fit. Can this person walk into a VC- and PE-backed business on day one, understand the sponsor dynamic, engage the management team, and start delivering? Product capability is assumed. Pace and VC and PE context-fit is what we test.
We move from mandate to shortlist in days. You'll see two to three credible candidates quickly — each with a clear recommendation, not just a profile.
We manage contracting and the first-week onboarding. We stay close during the first month to confirm the interim is embedded and delivering against the agreed brief.
Where an interim leads to a permanent hire, we plan the transition from the start. We run that permanent search with the same rigour — and with no conflict of interest.
If you have an immediate leadership gap, or can see one coming, let's talk. We can move from conversation to candidate in days.
