Technology Executive Search

    Growth technology leaders for PE, VC and founder-backed businesses.

    Technology is where L&G started. It is one of the sectors we work in, not the definition of what we do. The pattern is the same across every sector: find the operator who can take a strong business and make it a great one.

    Who we work with

    The businesses that ring us

    Founders, boards and investors of SaaS, platform, fintech, proptech and healthtech businesses. Series A through to pre-IPO. Australian and internationally headquartered, hiring senior leadership into Australia.

    Searches we run

    The roles we are trusted with in technology & saas

    Technical leaders who can scale teams, architecture and AI adoption.

    Product leaders bridging customer, engineering and commercial outcomes.

    For founder-to-CEO transitions and post-Series-B leadership resets.

    Engineering leaders scaling distributed teams across countries.

    AI and data leaders driving analytics strategy, ML adoption and data governance.

    How we work in this sector

    Tech search is not about finding the loudest CV on LinkedIn. It is about knowing which CTO built the team that powered a $200M exit, and whether they are ready for their next chapter yet.

    That is a network problem, not an algorithm problem. It is what we do.
