We don't just fill roles — we build pipelines of trusted, performance-tracked talent ready to stand out and deliver results.

To break the no experience no opportunity gap for early-career professionals — and help them break into industry, build credibility, confidence, and momentum through real-world work experience, training, and opportunity.

Our Mission

To be the leading global ecosystem for early careers — where talent is discovered, developed, deployed with purpose.

This Is For You If

You've applied to countless roles but keep hearing: "You need more experience."

You're tired of rejection emails, job board spam, and months of waiting around.

How It Works

We launch the next generation of standout professionals — fast. Gain real-world experience, industry credentials, and access to internship opportunities to break into Financial Services.

1 Recruit

We carefully recruit graduates, school leavers, and professionals eager to launch their careers. These driven individuals bring enthusiasm, ambition, and a strong desire to prove themselves in a competitive environment.

2 Train

Our core objective is to equip each intern with specialised training and hands-on experience, bridging the gap between theory and real-world application.

3 Deploy

Interns are deployed to our clients on a 12-week internship contract, with flexibility to transition into a permanent role or contractor position upon successful completion.

4 The Internship

The internship serves as a launchpad for candidates to gain a foothold in the industry, build credibility, and showcase their potential to clients.

5 Client Feedback

We closely monitor each candidate's performance and professional conduct, building a comprehensive track record and performance history. In many cases, candidates who excel are offered full-time or contract roles directly by the employer.

6 Redeployment

Once a candidate has proven their skills, reliability, and professionalism, they earn a place on our Trusted Bench — a select group of associates with proven experience and strong work history. This allows us to confidently present them to clients for paid assignments.

I reached out to James around six months ago to learn more about his early careers internship programme, as I’d been seriously considering a move into Financial Crime Compliance. Coming from a background in security, I knew I needed the right guidance and connections to break into the space.

James explained to me back then, ‘When you’re ready, I’ll help you get into the right opportunities.’ True to his word, when I called him this week ready to launch my career, he acted immediately. Within 24 hours, I was onboarded and introduced directly to a company I’d been eyeing — and not just anyone there, but the Chief Compliance Officer of a multi-million dollar fintech firm.

When James reached out with an opportunity to lead a project for a major bank in Dubai, I knew it would be a great fit—but I didn’t expect just how rewarding it would become.

Not only did I get to step into a role that challenged and stretched me professionally, but I was also given the chance to mentor two bright interns through his internship program. These interns came in hungry to learn, eager to contribute, and thanks to the structure James put in place, they were well-prepared and quick to add value.

James had the foresight to pair an experienced professional like myself with emerging talent—and it worked brilliantly. It created a dynamic where I could lead with confidence, while also helping shape the next generation of compliance professionals. The initiative gave us all something: real experience, real development, and real impact.

It’s rare to find a program that balances opportunity with purpose, but James has built exactly that. I’m proud to have been part of it.
