WHO WE WORK WITH / 01

We turn founder-dependent operations into scalable, valuable assets.

2iC Global works with recruitment agencies, executive search firms and professional services businesses. The methodology is built for businesses that are focused on their people, processes and performance, and where senior leadership or founders can be the bottleneck to growth.

RECRUITMENT AGENCIES Owner-led agencies where the founder is still the biggest biller and the bottleneck.
EXECUTIVE SEARCH FIRMS Boutique search firms where senior time is the binding constraint on growth.
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES Businesses built on relationships, reputation and bespoke scoping, where the same methodology applies.
OUR TRANSFORMATION PRODUCTS / 02

Three ways we work with you.

WHY 2iC / 03

We don't hand over a plan and leave. We build it with you.

Most consultants leave you with a slide deck and a lot of hope. We built 2iC to do the opposite. Julie McGrath and Leanne Jones Hunt bring 34 years and 400+ businesses' worth of recruitment and professional services transformation, plus a hand-picked bench of AI specialists, and we work inside your business until the plan is live, not filed.

34 YEARS COMBINED
400+ BUSINESSES
Julie McGrath
CO-FOUNDER, CHIEF STRATEGY OFFICER Julie McGrath

Spent 18 years doing the job she now trains and develops people to do, and trains leadership how to plan, implement and execute. Built, scaled and exited a tech recruitment firm of her own, scaled operations to 250+ people, and worked with Google on growing its SME programme across Europe. She takes command of your growth strategy.

Leanne Jones Hunt
CO-FOUNDER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER Leanne Jones Hunt

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

Results, not just recommendations.

“

Since working with 2iC we've doubled revenue, opened partnerships we wouldn't have reached on our own, and my visibility in the Databricks, Snowflake and Salesforce ecosystems is a different level. The weekly accountability is what makes it work. It genuinely feels like 2iC are an extension of my team.

Dave Gilman FOUNDER, DAVID ALLEN SEARCH
“

I knew there was a better, more effective way to do recruiting, and 2iC proved it: AI tools doing the heavy lifting, with a human-first approach to every candidate. Within four weeks we had saved £40,000 on advertising through better headhunting and sourcing, and I had the confidence to succeed in a new field.

Grant Hall RECRUITMENT CO-ORDINATOR, KSD SUPPORT SERVICES
“

2iC brought something rare: deep recruitment knowledge, real AI expertise, and the strategy and implementation to make both stick. Effectiveness across the team is up 20%, we've broken into new geographies, and the impact on our margins let us open a new line of business. They don't just advise, they get it done with you.
