Marlin Hawk Included In The Leap 100 2016: The Definitive List Of Fast-growth Companies

LONDON, April 20, 2016 — Marlin Hawk announced it has made it on to The Leap 100 2016 – a list of the 100 most exciting, fast-growth companies in the UK, launched by Mishcon de Reya and City AM. All the companies selected have demonstrated substantial growth over the past 12 months and been identified as the ‘ones to watch’ for 2016.

Marlin Hawk made this year’s list after a record year in 2015. The company – a leadership advisory, executive search and interim management firm that delivers the next generation of business leaders – grew its business across financial services, consumer products & services and technology.

Jonathan Hime, Group Managing Partner at Marlin Hawk, said: “Our success is down to a close-knit and immensely talented team who think outside the box and always go the extra mile for clients. 2015 was a milestone year in which we achieved stretch targets in the UK and USA and set up in Asia.”

The Leap 100 companies, which range in terms of scale and sector, were chosen because of their growth potential and ability to make the leap to the next level in terms of revenue.

The most important publication targeting the London business community, City AM, and one of London’s leading law firms, Mishcon de Reya, teamed up with The Supper Club, The Entrepreneurs Network and Seven Hills to compile the list, which is neither ranked nor exhaustive.

Nick Davis, Head of Corporate at Mishcon de Reya, said: “This stage of a company’s growth can be very dramatic, with risks of serious setbacks and sudden lows, but with high rewards for those who make it to the other side. The Leap 100 campaign examines and celebrates the hurdles and opportunities that fast growing companies face. We launched The Leap 100 in 2015 to support a select group of some of the UK’s most exciting, high growth companies. This year’s list is yet again a dynamic group of companies to watch.”

Christian May, Editor of City AM, said of the list: “The UK has a thriving SME community making up 99.9% of the private sector. However, for the majority of companies, the key problem continues to focus on how companies scale in order to grow to their full potential. The purpose of this list is to showcase the UK companies succeeding in doing this, as well as identifying those that we as a nation need to be aware of – they are a triumph.”
