DEEP TECH executive search & consultancy
Building deep tech disruptors and innovators – from semiconductors to rocket ships
From the lab to commercial scale-up, hire your next Deep Tech leaders
We help build and shape executive teams and Boards of some of the most exciting deep tech companies
An exciting industry with a unique set of challenges
Deep Tech firms are in an exciting place, developing pioneering technology, disrupting industries, and often experiencing rapid growth. Yet moving from a seed-funded start-up to a maturing business seeking sustainable long-term growth puts intense pressure on your leadership team. You have to satisfy investors, grow your customer base and continue to innovate.
We have over 20 years’ experience of supporting companies from inception, spinning out from Research Institutions and Universities, through their journey to commercial scale-up. We work with organisations to build the blend of skills and experience across their Board and Executive team to maximise their success as they make this transition.
CleanTech Edition – Insight 41
Welcome to the 41st edition of Insight Magazine from Sheffield Haworth
In this edition, we speak with leaders in the cleantech and renewables space, getting the inside track on how companies and investors are coming up with increasingly ingenious commercial solutions to the climate crisis.
As Faradion CEO, James Quinn says in his interview: “This is a once in a generation transition to global green and renewable energy – right now! It is so exciting to be a part of that.”
We hope you find these interviews insightful, enlightening, and occasionally surprising.

“Our first Executive Search with SH Gillamor Stephens was to hire a GM China Sales. Paul Gillespie, Managing Director – Deep Tech, was able to introduce us to his Shanghai team where Yen Pin Ng, Managing Director – Asia, was able to lead a local search and hire a first-class candidate for us. We then looked to hire a scale-up CEO and Paul Gillespie and Yen Pin completed an executive search into both the Asian and European markets generating a strong shortlist of candidates. We were able to hire an excellent first choice candidate, Jody Paulus, who has now started as CEO. It has been a pleasure to work with Paul, Yen Pin and the team resulting in two excellent hires. They were able to demonstrate the impact that local teams in local markets can have on the quality of shortlisted candidates.”
