Storm2 is great to partner with. Working with the team was more than just working with a vendor, it really did feel like a partnership. They provided constant feedback about the talent selection process which we were able to use to strengthen the process.

Erich JohnsonSenior Technical Recruiter at Zensurance

It was an absolute pleasure partnering with Storm2 for our recruitment needs.

Saiful KhandakerCEO & Founder at Fintech Ecosystem Development

Storm2 has consistently brought us high quality and engaged candidates that have resulted in some great new hires. Each recruiter and account manager I've partnered with has genuinely been a joy to work with!

Chelsea SearanHuman Resources at Instant.co

My experience working with the team at Storm2 has been nothing short of excellent. We are a hyper-growth company, with roles that are not straightforward to fill. Our consultant, Daniel, was exceptionally patient, understanding of the brief, and quick to deliver candidate profiles that hit the mark. . . 10/10 would recommend.

Emilie RichieTalent Acquisition Manager at Taptap Send

Storm2 has been such a great partner throughout this process! They did a lot of diligence to understand what we were looking for from the beginning, resulting in some great candidates right out of the gate. Our Consultant, Sara Waiprakone, was also incredibly good at incorporating our feedback as we started interviewing candidates to get us closer and closer to what we wanted. She was also really helpful giving us advice on how to improve the interview process, including providing us with a first draft of a practical assignment so we could better understand skills in action.

Jane Camp

Thomas truly understands our company culture and has done an amazing job screening and introducing high-quality candidates. I couldn’t be happier with his work building our Bay Area ML SWE pipeline!

Tomoe Kawagoe

I had a great experience working with Storm 2. The team was highly responsive and quickly understood our urgent hiring needs. They delivered a strong slate of candidates who were not only well-qualified, but also experienced and professional. What stood out most was their ability to move quickly without sacrificing quality, something that was critical for us given our immediate need.

Sounmi CampbellHR Director, Envestnet (Yodlee)

Worth had a fantastic experience working with Storm2. They were able to quickly and successfully place an Enterprise Account Executive who matched our needs exactly — both from a skills perspective and a cultural fit standpoint.
From the beginning, the team took the time to truly understand our company, our product, and the type of candidate that would thrive in our environment. Their communication was clear, proactive, and highly professional throughout the entire process.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

It’s how we know the market before you brief us. We identify FinTech leaders early in their careers, stay close as they rise, and track the moments they become open to a move. By the time a mandate lands, the search has effectively been running for years.

We rarely start with a cold approach. The people we place are usually already in the Network, relationships built over years, not a message sent last week. That’s the difference between access and outreach.

No. Most of any shortlist comes from a full open-market search. The Network gives us a head start and sharper judgment, not a closed list.

While our Contingent Staffing team helps companies fill skills gaps at speed, and our Permanent Staffing team builds out their core teams –  Executive search is a different discipline entirely.

With fewer roles, far higher stakes, and a retained process built around the decision, our Executive Search team help FinTechs find leaders for the future. It runs on the Future Leaders Network , so it begins with the market already understood.

Storm2 helps FinTech organizations like yours hire game changing talent. With specialist Recruitment teams for FinTech’s key sectors.
