Aggregate figures drawn from completed mandates across financial services, critical infrastructure and technology sectors, 2020–2026. Individual engagement metrics are detailed in the case studies below.
In critical environments, hiring isn't about keyword-matching CVs. It's about finding people with the judgement and credibility to operate in high-consequence settings.
We help you shape roles around resilience outcomes, not generic titles.
We engage the small pool of cyber talent with OT/IT judgement and credibility.
We benchmark the capability you actually need for regulated contexts.
A tight, efficient process delivering a high-quality shortlist with pace.
"I can't recommend Gyles and the team at Foundations enough. We struggled to find a suitable candidate for 5 months, Foundations found 3 perfect candidates in 24 hours."
