About Us

OUR Mission

We’re on a mission to help ambitious consumer brands build high-performing teams. How? By leveraging our niche expertise and robust search methodology to streamline executive recruitment.

Our human-centric approach ensures we find candidates who not only fit the role but also align with your company culture, increasing employee ROI and retention.

OUR STORY

Founded in 2018 by Alex Marriner as Acquire Digital Talent, we became Acquire Search as our work expanded beyond digital and marketing into broader talent partnerships with scaling consumer brands.

Today, we partner with ambitious DTC and consumer brands across the UK, Europe and the US, helping them build exceptional teams across Marketing & Growth, Sales & Commercial, and Operations & Supply Chain.

OUR APPROACH

We believe in going “inch wide, mile deep”. It’s not just a catchy phrase, it’s our recruitment philosophy. This focus lets us offer a level of service to both candidates and clients that generalist agencies can’t. Here’s what sets us apart:

Community-Driven Ethos

We’ve cultivated thriving forums for senior leaders. These communities foster knowledge sharing and professional growth, giving us unique insights into the pulse of the industry.

Exclusive Focus

We specialise in scaling consumer brands, so we understand the challenges and opportunities you face. As niche experts, we’re uniquely positioned to help you grow through impactful hires.

Active vs. Passive Talent

We don’t just fish in the active talent pool. Our mission-driven approach taps into the 70% of passive candidates who aren’t actively job hunting but could be your next game-changing hire.

Podcast Power

Our No Playbook podcast features interviews with leading founders, CMOs and growth leaders, giving us valuable insights and strengthening our network across the consumer space.

Video-Enhanced Recruitment

We leverage video interviews in our process, saving time for hiring managers and providing a more comprehensive candidate overview.

Partner With a Specialist Search Team

We work with ambitious DTC and consumer brands to build exceptional teams across Marketing & Growth, Sales & Commercial, and Operations & Supply Chain.

Our approach is structured, research-led and designed to deliver long-term impact.
