Why We Are Different
Working with Up feels different…
Our problem-solving & advice
We are creative, we bring fresh perspectives, we love feedback and we use the insights gained at every step of the process to challenge our collective thinking and evolve. We will be a thought partner and adviser.
Our international talent network
For over a decade we have worked across business life-cycles, from disruptive VC-backed start-ups and PE-owned growth companies through to global corporations. Our reach is broad and international; our network transcends growth and transformation.
Our process
While we are thorough and structured, we are also agile, flexible, iterative and collaborative. We advocate meeting calibration candidates early in the process and being open about potential trade-offs. We are always responsive and accessible, and exist to find your best solution.
Our track record
We have deep experience of building the Boards (Chairs, NEDs and CEOs) and leadership teams across all business stages, from listed companies through to investor-backed start-ups.
Our team & expertise
Our team comprises of some of Europe’s highest profile senior digital search practitioners, known for their extensive networks and industry insight, with several coming from digital businesses themselves. Up is an investor-backed business; we have first-hand operational experience and empathy for those facing similar scaling challenges.
