Headquartered in London with additional offices in Cardiff, New York, San Diego, and Amsterdam, the company has launched a recruitment drive to hire 74 new employees since the investment was announced in July. This is backed up by bringing in Chris Maurice who joins as the Global Talent Acquisition Director.
With a focus on fintech, financial services, life sciences, cybersecurity, and manufacturing sectors, Hamlyn Williams has already expanded to new, upgraded offices in Cardiff, London, and New York. Alongside this expansion, Nick Gordon, founder of Meraki Capital, has joined the company's board, reinforcing their leadership team.
Nick Vaughan, Founder and CEO of Hamlyn Williams, commented, "The last three months have been incredible. The financial boost from Meraki Capital has allowed us to not only expand into new offices but also reinvigorate our team. Often, such investments lead to major restructuring, but Meraki Capital has worked closely with us to help achieve our immediate goals. We're now focused on doubling our revenues to $100 million within the next two years – a challenge we're fully committed to meeting. We're actively seeking new talent across all our offices to help us get there, and we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to reach out and join our growing team.”
Nick Gordon, founder of Meraki Capital and newly appointed director at Hamlyn Williams, added, "It's been a whirlwind few months, but Hamlyn Williams is exactly the type of company we love to support. The team is outstanding, with strong values and big ambitions. They just needed that extra push in terms of investment to continue their upward trajectory. With three new offices and a growing workforce in just a few months, we're well on our way. There's still more work to be done to reach their ambitious goals, but this is a prime example of how financial investment can drive positive change within a business.
“My philosophy is to nurture and partner with companies rather than overpower them with investment. The thought of ripping the heart and soul out of a business, which is a massive fear for some business-owners when looking for capital, is the complete opposite of how we work. I'm truly excited for Hamlyn Williams' future and look forward to welcoming new team members as we continue this journey."
