Greenings
Celebrating 25 Years
Greenings, or as it was known in 1999, is proud to have achieved the founding ambition of dedicating itself to a borderless sector, building valuable long-term relationships across the world!
Throughout the last 25 years, 100% of new business has been generated by referral, underpinned by ethical and trusting relationships. Through respect and enjoyment of getting to know the people that place their careers and businesses in our hands, we have amassed a community of professionals that we are proud to call our friends.
"Greenings has had a huge impact on my career. I wouldn’t be here doing what I'm doing now if I hadn't met Andrew back in 1999.
Having started off as a candidate, then a client at Retail Decisions, WEX and now Modulr, it has become clear that Greenings bring the alignment clients need by knowing the industry and candidates so well."
“Working with the Greenings team has been a consistently positive experience. As both a client and a Board Advisor over two decades, I have found their approach to be highly professional, personalised, and strategic. They take the time to understand the nuances of both the roles they are filling and the individuals they are placing, ensuring the best possible fit every time. Their dedication to maintaining long-term relationships and their deep industry knowledge have always stood out to me.”
"I was first introduced to Andrew by a mutual friend and colleague, more than 20 years ago. He and I have stayed in close touch over the years, and I have been both a candidate and a client of Greenings in that time. More importantly, however, Andrew has always been willing to give me informal and acute career advice. Whenever anyone in my network asks me for a recommendation on a senior recruiter in the financial arena, Andrew is the first name on that list."
“Working with Greenings has been, over the years, always positive and dynamic, never a boring day! Andrew knows the power of connecting people and ideas, not just across industries but on a global basis and enabled one of our most successful deals.”
“Even in today's tech-driven business landscape, the significance of people cannot be overstated. While advancements in technology undoubtedly play a pivotal role in shaping the pay/fintech industry, it's the human element that ultimately drives success and fosters meaningful impact. Greenings exemplifies this principle by recognising that their impact transcends mere financial metrics and technological innovations. Instead, they understand the importance of cultivating social capital - the intangible network of relationships, trust, and cooperation that underpins their interactions within the payment sector and beyond.
By prioritising social responsibility alongside innovation, Greenings has helped transform the payment sector. In embracing this ethos, Greenings’ success underscores the enduring importance of human values in business, reminding us that true innovation lies not only in technological advancements but also in the way we harness them to create positive change for people and communities."
“Greenings have had a huge impact on my career in 2007 and I wouldn’t be where I am today without them. Andrew builds rapport and trust, is encouraging but not pushy, is very supportive and is there for the long run and always brings something relevant.”
"Greenings has been finding world class candidates for me for 10 years, across 3 continents. No matter how challenging the task, its first-class team of researchers always deliver. Each one of the hires we have made from Greenings has quickly added value to my business"

“The role I took through Greenings has been life changing. It gave me the opportunity to move continents and become a global citizen, with broader international exposure. Greenings are authentic, honest and interested in long term relationships and that genuine connection creates trust for developing your career.”
“I have worked with Greenings on engagements across a number of organisations and multiple geographies. The team work holistically and thoroughly for the client and candidate. The service feels extremely personalised, with knowledgeable professionals who deliver added value well beyond the placement. Everyone I hired with Greenings has been promoted multiple times within the organisation or moved to bigger and better things.”
“I have always felt Greenings, Andrew and all the team, create a feeling of care and support. This sense that everyone is treated as an individual and the continuity of the relationship is what sets Greenings apart.”
I have known Andrew Greening for more than twenty years. In that time, I have worked with him in multiple capacities. He has:
- Helped to place me as CEO of a business that sold for more than 20X EBITDA.
- Provided strategic insight on the fast-changing payments and banking industry.
- Generously shared his vast network of contacts.
- Hired multiple excellent senior people for me.
- Provided consultancy and operational support to a complex restructuring.
More important than all of that, Andrew has become a trusted friend who I regularly take counsel from. There is no question in my mind that this long-term relationship has had many positive implications for my professional career and has brightened my personal life. Here’s to the next 25 years of Greenings International!
“Through Greenings I secured my first managing director role, which was a milestone in my career. The entire team were interested in building a relationship with me as a candidate and that continued as I was onboarding. I felt accompanied by Greenings and that they were invested in the relationship for the long term.”
“What particularly impressed me about working with Greenings as a candidate, apart from Andrew’s genuine charm and enthusiasm, was the time he took to keep me engaged and fully informed during the twists and turns in what turned out to be a long recruitment process as the client went through a takeover.”
