Client Testimonials

“I worked with Mat Gibson during the post-administration phase of a PE-backed business where, as interim COO, I led the full operational transition. Mat played a key role by successfully headhunting several critical leadership appointments for the organisation.

Mat operates with exceptional professionalism and precision. He’s an astute recruiter who understands the commercial, operational, and leadership demands of PE environments. I’d have no hesitation recommending him as a recruitment partner to any investor or portfolio company.”

– Gilles Ferrier, Chief Operating & Transformation Officer, Eukairos Ltd
