A holistic growth partner

Hanover is more than just an executive search firm. We’re a growth partner. We’re passionate about working with disruptive, scaling businesses, about being part of that exciting journey.

That’s why we’re happy to bring fintechs closer to potential investors in our network, helping secure crucial funding. In addition, we facilitate introductions to potential clients and business development opportunities, positioning you for long-term success.

Tailored pricing models

We know the financial pressures that come with scaling a fintech. But we don’t believe this should prevent you from accessing the transformational benefits of executive search.

To help with this, we offer bespoke pricing solutions that align our success with your business goals. Our innovative pricing models make hiring exceptional talent accessible without compromising your growth strategy.

Attracting top talent to risk-taking roles

The fintech sector is often seen as a risky environment by executives from traditional professional services industries. Hanover already has established connections with entrepreneurial talent that’s excited about innovation and is ready to take that risk in their career.

Our ability to tell your brand story further paints you as an employer of choice to these hard-to-find executives. All of this ensures you keep attracting top-tier talent willing to embrace the dynamic world of fintech.

Confidence in every hire

Smaller fintechs may lack the confidence or internal infrastructure for high-stakes hiring decisions. Hanover brings rigour, thorough assessment and a deep understanding of your industry to every search. You can stay focussed on the business with the confidence that you’ve hired the right leaders to drive your vision.
