£12.0M

The Sheffield-based software provider secured the growth capital from BGF to expand its product offerings and reach.

"Tribepad has built a feature-rich platform that’s helping organisations across the country improve their ability to source and attract talent. The business is well-positioned to capitalise on favourable market tailwinds that are driving ever greater adoption of recruitment technologies as organisations look to succeed in what is an extremely tight labour market. With the support of BGF and Andy McRae as non-executive chair, I’m excited to see what Dean and the team can achieve and I look forward to working closely with the business over the next few years."

Growth
£2.0M

European private equity fund MonacoSol backs the Manchester recruiter marketplace to drive domestic and international growth.

"We all use marketplaces to do things like book travel and find insurance, and at a time when the war for talent makes it more challenging than ever to find candidates, using the same model is helping companies find candidates quickly with less hassle through our trusted network of specialist recruitment agencies."
— Simon Swan, Founder and CEO
Series B
£5.8M

The Manchester-based psychometric assessment provider has secured Series B backing from Praetura Ventures and Calculus Capital to scale its soft-skills platform across Europe.

"This next phase of investment will help Arctic Shores to realise its mission to help companies see more in people and transform recruitment so that potential will count as much as hard skills or experience."
— Robert Newry, CEO

The seed round was led by Par Equity with support from Techstart Ventures, Nile HQ, and notable entrepreneurs.

"HR tech is a fast-growing segment, and what Rich, Craig and the team have built in terms of the technology to support sourcing, onboarding, and helping to retain staff, in such a short amount of time is a remarkable achievement."
— Paul Atkinson, Par Equity Partner
