CLIENT OUTCOMES

The world’s most exciting Insurtech startups find their talent through Founders Circle.

We put in the effort to help build teams that stick together over Insurtech’s biggest challenges.

“We spent over 10 months looking for a suitable Sales Director and used several agencies with disappointing results.  James and the team at Founders Circle understood our requirements and was able to present us with several suitable candidates helping us to complete our recruitment process within a month.”

‍Bao Cam, Founder of Symfos

I’d never successfully worked with any recruitment service until I worked with Dean from Founders Circle. The calibre of candidates Dean managed to source, the personal approach and support through the process is unmatched. I highly recommend working with Dean and the team at Founders Circle if you’re looking for the best talent for your team.

Charlotte Koep, CEO of Root

Dean brings a level of discretion and nuance to recruitment that’s rare in the market. He understands how to find exceptional talent and, just as importantly, how to convey your story to them in a way that truly resonates. A genuine professional who I’d recommend without hesitation.

THE JOURNEY

From First Conversation to Long-Term Growth Partner

Our structured process is designed to align with your funding cycles and strategic milestones.

01

Let's meet

A conversation about what you’re building, where you’re heading and what you need from a partner.

02

Define the Partnership

Together, we agree what matters now, what can wait and where we can make the biggest difference.

03

Make it happen

We run focused hiring searches and make relevant introductions, with clear communication throughout.

04

Stay close

As your business evolves, so does our support. We stay in touch, share opportunities and help you plan the next move.

BEYOND THE HIRE

We remove the friction to unlock growth.

The strongest partnerships begin with context. Where the business is going. What the team is missing. The biggest, scary bottlenecks stopping the company from succeeding.

Once we understand your hidden context, we can then support beyond the hire- how you get in front of the right risk carriers, investors and customers to accelerate your growth.

01

Capacity

We connect you to insurers and capacity providers whose appetite fits your business.

02

Investment

Introductions to angels, venture capital and private equity investors suited to your stage of growth.

03

GTM

We connect you with potential customers and distribution partners, with practical support on your go-to-market approach.
