Build the team before the revenue arrives.

Bring on the sales reps, engineers, or operators you need to deliver growth — without waiting for the cash flow to catch up. Hiring finance bridges the gap between recruitment cost and revenue contribution.

Common scenarios

  • Recruiting a sales team ahead of a confirmed pipeline
  • Hiring engineers to deliver a newly-won contract
  • Funding recruitment-agency fees for senior hires
  • Covering salary and training costs through a ramp-up period

  2. We match you with a lender comfortable with growth-stage funding
  3. Receive an offer sized to cover the hiring window plus a buffer
  4. Draw down funds as you make each hire, or in a single tranche

Frequently asked questions

Will lenders want to see signed offer letters?

Not usually. They'll want to understand the roles, salaries, and the revenue case for hiring.

Can this cover recruitment-agency fees?

Yes. Recruitment-agency invoices are a normal use of working-capital funding.

What if a new hire doesn't work out?

The facility is for the business, not tied to specific individuals. If a hire leaves, you simply redeploy the headcount budget elsewhere.
