9 GTM Leaders Placed Across Europe in 4 months — How 2B Delivered Where Others Couldn't for Nium

Fresh off a $200m Series D, Nium needed to build its European GTM leadership team fast. Internal hiring and other recruiters had failed to deliver. 2B came in on a retained basis and changed everything.

GTM Leadership

Nium had just closed one of fintech's biggest Series D rounds — $200m to power global expansion. The European GTM team needed to be built from scratch, and it needed to happen quickly. The pressure was real: they'd already tried sourcing internally and through other agencies. Neither delivered the calibre of talent the business required.

2B was referred directly to Co-Founder and CEO Prajit Nanu in January 2023. Work commenced the following month on a retained basis — giving the team the resource and focus needed to move at the pace a post-Series D business demands. The brief was clear: more high-quality candidates, faster.

What followed was one of 2B's sharpest delivery performances. Nine senior GTM hires placed across four countries in four months, with an average time to hire of just 29 days and shortlists delivered within two weeks. Every role filled. Zero compromises on quality.

I was blown away by how quickly 2B delivered great talent. They hired nine people across multiple European locations in just four months. Very impressed with the speed and accuracy in which they delivered and would 100% recommend their services.
