Haworth Lloyd

Haworth Lloyd is a boutique executive search and advisory company founded in 2005, specialising in recruitment for the alternatives investment industry. The firm recruits investment staff from associate to partner level across capital raising, marketing, and sales functions. Haworth Lloyd works exclusively with alternative investment firms, leveraging deep market knowledge and industry expertise to identify and place top talent.

The company serves a diverse range of alternative investment clients, including credit hedge funds and asset managers focused on high yield and leveraged loans, performing credit, distressed debt, special situations, and structured credit. Haworth Lloyd also recruits for direct lending firms, non-performing loan specialists, real estate debt and equity investors, equity long/short funds, activist funds, event-driven private equity funds spanning large to small cap, growth equity funds, and venture capital firms.

Predominantly London based, Haworth Lloyd occasionally undertakes mandates in other European, US, and Asian global financial centres. Founded by Gareth Lewys-Lloyd, an economics and politics graduate from the University of Bristol with over two decades of experience in alternative investment recruitment, the company is built on the principle of working hard to know its markets and treating people with honesty and decency. This approach has resulted in high repeat business and referral ratios, making Haworth Lloyd a trusted partner for alternative investment firms seeking senior investment talent.
