Building a high-growth Fintech

Demica | Fintech | London

Overview

Demica powers the trade finance programmes of the world’s largest banks and corporations. We supported their growth across Product, Engineering, and Operations, placing the people needed to scale their supply chain finance platform.

The Challenge

Demica’s platform handles large-scale transactions across payables, receivables, and supply chain finance for major banking partners globally. As the business scaled rapidly, they needed Product and Engineering talent with genuine domain expertise across trade finance and working capital. It’s a narrow profile, and generalist recruiters couldn’t deliver.

The Solution

Leadable built a targeted search strategy focused on the unique intersection of financial services knowledge and product and engineering expertise. Working closely with the Demica team, we identified candidates who combined technical expertise with a strong commercial understanding of the platform and its end users.

Candidate Perspective

What stood out most was that Christian stayed in touch long after I joined. It never felt like the relationship ended once the offer was accepted. He checked in throughout the settling-in period, made sure I was supported, and genuinely cared about how things were going.
