great people

I've worked with Catalyst on the client and candidate side. They are very knowledgeable in the field of Venture and PE. They quickly understand the brief and add value due to the unique understanding of the market as well as client and candidate drivers.

I have had the pleasure of working with Catalyst as both a candidate and a client and I can confidently say they are exceptional in every aspect. They are personable, knowledgeable and have a deep understanding of the market. I highly recommend the Catalyst team to anyone looking for a trusted recruitment partner.

You’ll certainly be my first port of call for hiring within investment management in the future if your team is anything like Bailey! Talk about going the extra mile, he constantly checks in, makes himself available to ensure I have everything I need and acts as a great sounding board. I can’t think that the process could have gone any better!! I am super impressed and would highly recommend Bailey and Catalyst from both a client and a candidate perspective.  Chief People Officer Global Alternatives Solutions organisation

Victoria has been very helpful as I have built my team, helping me think through what we needed, and assisting with finding relevant candidates. She has a thorough understanding of the PE world and the particular HR challenges that arise in this sector, which has been a great source of sensible market insight. Additionally, as I look at the next stage in my career, she has offered great practical support on how to approach the market as a ‘fractional’ HR candidate. I would be happy to recommend her.

I worked with Catalyst when we increased our recruiting team headcount by 200% during a tough, candidate short market. They headhunted high calibre candidates and the quality of the team hired was top notch, driving up capacity to recruit talent for the organisation and rebuild relationships. I would have no hesitation in recommending health to anyone looking for the next role. 

Krys is terrific and having talked to a number of headhunters before Krys, I’m really glad that I met him! Superb support throughout the whole process at any time of day or evening, he was brilliant with advice, guidance, frequent updates and pushing the process along. I got my current role through Krys and he was a terrific support in making it happen at every step. I can strongly recommend Krys and have done to many others, he was a consummate professional and is exceptionally good, approachable and friendly!

The Catalyst team are seasoned professionals who managed the end-to-end recruitment process excellently on my behalf, judging and balancing my own and the interests of clients very proficiently. They sourced premium opportunities on competitive terms, while also supporting my career progression and aspirations. Catalyst is able to leverage an excellent City network and deliver outstanding execution for their stakeholders. Highly recommended.

I've known him for over three years now and he maintains a good friendly relationship with his clients, has great knowledge of the Reward market and keeps up to date with all the changes in this market. Krys understands his clients' needs well and presents the right roles for them that would not only match their profile and be career enhancing but also where his clients be the right fit for the company. Highly professional and very well regarded in the industry.

Catalyst recruited me for my current role and it was a great experience! Throughout the process I was well informed and got honest feedback. Negotiation was smooth and the fit for the role has been great. Highly recommended!

A friend and colleague recommended I meet Lucy as they view her as professional and trustworthy, and it was immediately obvious why she has this reputation. From our first meeting, she took time to understand my skills and experience, and what was important to me as I considered my next move. At no point did she encourage me in a direction that wasn’t right for me – in fact, she knew very early on where I’d be a good fit and her instincts were spot on. She even sent me a 'good luck' note prior to my first interview which I really appreciated. It was an absolute privilege working with Lucy and I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for their next role.

Working  with Krys was a complete breath of fresh air. His professionalism and dedication gave me the confidence that I had the best possible person fighting my corner every step of the way, and he thinks nothing of calling R&O and actively moving things along. He comes highly recommended.
