About Us
Our Story
Founded on the belief that exceptional talent transforms organizations, Emrys Howell has spent over a decade building investment teams for the world's most ambitious private equity, growth equity, and venture capital firms.
Setting the Standard
We are a specialist recruitment firm with an exclusive focus on investment teams across private equity, venture capital, and growth equity. We do not recruit for every function. We recruit for one: the investment professionals who source deals, execute transactions, and manage portfolios.
Our mandate covers every seniority level within the investment team, from Investment Analysts and Associates entering the industry through to Vice Presidents, Principals, and Partners at the top of their fields. This narrow focus means our market knowledge, candidate networks, and assessment frameworks are calibrated with a precision that generalist firms cannot match.
We operate with the discretion our clients demand, moving quickly without compromising on quality, and building relationships that extend far beyond a single placement.
