Private Equity · Recruitment
Start a conversationThe Opportunity
Recruitment rewards individual performance more directly than almost any other industry. Yet the people who bill the most, train the teams and win the clients usually do it inside someone else's business — building someone else's equity.
Going alone is the alternative, and it is unforgiving: personal guarantees, cash-flow gaps, compliance, contracts, systems and no one experienced to call at 7pm. Most good recruiters never start. Many who do stall in year two.
Miura Capital exists to remove that trade-off — real ownership, without doing it alone.
The Partnership
Majority ownership stays with the founder. We provide 100% of the launch capital, the back office and the operators behind you — you keep the decisions that shape the firm. You recruit, win clients and lead the team; we carry everything that surrounds it.

You hold the majority, run your own P&L and build your own brand. We fund the launch, absorb the setup and stay close enough to be useful — not close enough to get in the way.
Who We Back
I
Are you a top biller, team leader or manager ready for ownership?
We provide you with the capital, structure and support to become a business owner with zero risk.
You've built a desk, it's time to build a legacy.
II
Do you have a clear niche, or an amazing business plan that you want to execute?
Maybe you're an incredible operator who needs help with strategy.
We can help build your team, connect you with co-founders and create a water tight plan, then partner with you to execute.
III
79% of recruitment businesses are under 10 people. 85% have under £1m of revenue. You are not alone.
Miura Capital provides growth equity to existing recruitment businesses who are looking for capital, infrastructure and partnership for the next phase of growth.

If you have experience in the recruitment industry, we want to hear from you!
What You Get On Day One
A finance director, payroll, invoicing, credit control and management accounts — in place from the first placement.
Contracts, terms of business, client agreements and compliance handled properly, not copied off the internet.
Employment contracts, hiring, onboarding and people policy as you grow your first team.
The tech stack — CRM, job boards, data and tooling — selected, paid for and set up.
A dedicated trainer to build capability into your consultants, not just your desk.
A wealth manager helping you plan personally for what the business is building.
Plus experienced operators who have built and sold recruitment businesses — on hand to advise, challenge and open doors.
Why Our Capital Is Different
We put the capital in — and that capital is backed by a substantial portfolio of equities and real estate assets. We are not deploying someone else's money against a fund clock.
That means patient capital, decisions made in days rather than committees, and stability through the hiring cycles that catch out leveraged backers.
No exit deadline imposed on your growth.
Support that holds when the market turns.
Funding certainty as you hire ahead of revenue.
Decisions from the people who own the money.
Our Philosophy
The track record of the individual matters more than the polish of the plan.
You build equity in something that is genuinely yours to run.
Our team removes work. Your operator advises. Neither runs your desk.
We plan in decades because our capital does not need an exit date.

The Next Step
I
Tell us about your market, your desk and what you would build.
II
We work through the numbers, the niche and the first hires together.
III
Capital committed, back office switched on, operator alongside you.
No obligation, no fee, and complete discretion. Most conversations start long before anyone is ready to hand in a notice period — that is exactly the right time to have one.
We back a small number of founders each year. Tell us briefly who you are and what you would like to build, and one of the principals will respond personally.
