SmartSearch has received a growth equity investment from Marlin Equity Partners to scale its compliance platform.
"We first met Marlin through an investment process we ran to find a partner; the high degree of interest in our business impressed everyone and Marlin stood out from the crowd. It was clear from our first meeting that Marlin has a deep understanding of our sector, our business model and they had done their homework. They quickly demonstrated how they could add value to our business, and we had a strong meeting of minds with a common goal."
The funding was led by Joe Saumarez Smith to support the expansion of the Alvius platform.
"Now employers can use our software to create their own talent platforms, replacing slow and inefficient sourcing and selection processes and matching great talent with current opportunities in a fraction of the time."
— Andrew Lavelle, co-founder of TalentPool and Alvius managing director
