Enabling founders to build the teams that scale businesses
You can’t scale alone. Growth depends on having the right leadership, the right culture, and the right hires at the right time.
At Talent Gateway, we work with ambitious founders to build leadership teams, shape culture, and hire people who thrive in scale-up environments.
We partner with you to build the people side of your business, so you can grow with confidence.
Scaling isn’t straightforward and no-one prepares you for this bit
You’ve proven there’s demand.
You’ve built something that works.
But scaling? That’s different.
You’re juggling delivery, team issues, hiring gaps, investor expectations, all while trying to keep the vision alive.
It’s exciting, but exhausting.
And it can feel like you’re building the plane mid-flight.
Scaling means finding that balance between:
- Moving fast, and
- Building the structure and team to grow without breaking.
This is where we come in.
Trusted by 75+ Scale-up Leaders to build the right Scale-up team
We’ve helped over 75 founders and CEOs solve the people challenges that come with scaling, from making key leadership hires, to rebuilding recruitment processes, to shaping employer brands that attract the right talent.
Sometimes we’re brought in to restructure a leadership team.
Other times, to fix a broken hiring engine.
Often, it’s both.
Whatever the need, our focus is the same:
Helping you build the team, culture, and capability to grow without losing what made your business great in the first place.
How we help founders Scale with Confidence
Leadership
We help you design the right leadership structure for your next stage and hire the right people to drive it. Whether it’s your first Head of… or a full leadership team review, we ensure you have the right people in the right roles.
Culture
We help you define, evolve, and communicate your culture, so it’s not just something you feel, but something your team understands and future hires are drawn to.
Hiring
From rebuilding broken processes to future proofing your hiring engine, we equip your business to consistently attract, select, and keep the right people without relying on luck or costly recruiters.
When founders bring us in
You’re pulled in too many directions
Strategic thinking keeps getting sidelined, you’re firefighting more than leading. The team needs clarity, and you need to step out of the weeds.
Your early team is hitting its limits
What worked at 10 people isn’t working at 20. Gaps are showing, roles are unclear, and you’re not sure if you’ve got the right structure to grow.
Every leadership hire feels like a big risk
