Growth & Start-Up Partnership
At Stanley Cowton International, we recognise that early-stage and scaling businesses require more than traditional recruitment support — they need a strategic partner who understands the pace, pressure, and ambition of growth.
Our Growth & Start-Up Partnership is designed to align with your vision from the ground up, providing bespoke talent solutions that evolve as your company does. Whether you’re building your founding team or expanding into new markets, we help you identify, attract, and retain the people who will drive your success.
This partnership is rooted in collaboration, agility, and long-term value — ensuring that as your business grows, your talent strategy grows with it.

Why Start-Ups Choose SCI
Critical Early Hires: In your growth phase, every hire helps shape the company you’re becoming. We help you build out and expand your leadership bench — finding the people who will define your culture, inspire your teams, and lay the foundation for long-term success.
Strategic Focus: We zero in on the hires that will have the biggest impact on your business performance — whether that’s unlocking revenue growth or solving operational bottlenecks. Every search is guided by what will deliver the most measurable results.
Risk Mitigation: Hiring is one of the biggest investments you’ll make — and we believe in sharing the risk. Our 12-month guarantee means we stand behind every placement we make, giving you confidence that we’re committed to long-term success, not just filling a role.
Preferential Pricing: We understand that every penny counts when scaling a business. That’s why we offer founder-friendly rates and fee structures that evolve as you hit key funding or revenue milestones — so you can invest in top talent without slowing your growth.
Flexibility & Agility: Growth doesn’t wait — and neither do we. Our boutique model means no red tape, no lengthy processes — just fast, focused, and fully confidential searches designed to keep your momentum going.
True Partnership: We’re not just a search provider — we work as an extension of your team. By understanding your mission, culture, and growth plans, we act as a trusted advisor, helping you make hiring decisions that will move the business forward.
