Services.
Two practices, one team. Most clients begin with a search and bring us back into a consultancy engagement once the next layer of the business is ready to scale. Day-rate, retainer and success-fee terms are all available; we will tell you which one fits.
Search built around
defence reality.
We run three engagement types. We recommend the smallest one that solves the problem.
For senior, technical or sensitive roles where confidentiality and accuracy matter. 1/3 retainer at brief, 1/3 at shortlist, 1/3 at offer accepted. Replacement guarantee within 90 days.
When you are hiring 5–25 people in a quarter. We embed a recruiter (Kyiv- or London-based, your choice) into your team, working from your ATS at a fixed monthly fee.
Discreet executive search and board introductions. We have placed founders, technical co-founders and non-exec directors into UK and Ukrainian defence-tech companies.
Bridge between
the UK and Ukraine.
Recruitment is necessary, but not always sufficient. We run focused consulting engagements when a hire alone won't move the needle.
For UK firms scaling capability into Ukraine, and Ukrainian companies establishing UK operations. Includes legal-entity setup partners, regulatory mapping, partner introductions and a hiring plan for the first ten roles.
Headcount plans tied to capability roadmaps. Compensation benchmarks across UK and UA defence-tech. Interview kits, scorecards and onboarding playbooks. Rebuild a broken hiring funnel in eight weeks.
Working with cleared partners on export control questions, end-use statements, ITAR/EAR exposure and pathways for UK security clearance for Ukrainian and other non-UK nationals. We connect, we don't pretend to be lawyers.
Curated introductions to UK and European defence-tech investors, primes and integrators. We do not run fundraises, but we open the right doors and brief on what each fund will and will not look at.
