How Acquisitive started
A full-spectrum talent advisory firm, Acquisitive was formed in 2022 after its four founders identified a niche in the market allowing them to partner with clients – primarily leading corporate and private equity-backed organisations – to co-design and implement solutions to enable these clients to transform, grow and prosper.
Growth
Acquisitive has established an external advisory board that provides invaluable guidance and mentoring for the company’s leadership team and broader business, ensuring it can deliver on its strategic growth plans and objectives. The board also provides an essential sounding board for innovation and new thinking as the company strives to develop bespoke solutions to its clients’ most challenging talent problems.
Where to next
Acquisitive is expanding its focus into healthcare, currently onboarding a range of specialist, clinician-led organisations. These organisations operate in highly constrained talent markets both domestically and globally, and being able to develop proactive talent pipelines of high-performing specialists is critical to unlocking growth.
