I had been a headhunter for 30 years.

Then in 2014, I had one of those lightbulb moments when I realized that, in the digital age, there had to be a better way of hiring new board members beyond little black books and the old boys’ network. So I set up Nurole, the global platform changing the way organizations bring the best people onto their boards. Our approach combines smart technology and industry experts to transform the boards of multinationals, start-ups, charities, government bodies, and everything in between. We identify both obviously suitable candidates and make more imaginative matches, empowering brilliant people to apply for roles that require their skills, experience, and passions.

We are breaking open the old headhunting processes, secretive searches that throw up safe and predictable names. That model isn’t working, either for talented people keen to use their expertise in new ways or for organizations that need fresh perspectives.

The Financial Times named Nurole one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies in both 2019 and 2020.
