Hi.
My name is Lawrence Pammen.
I build careers at the C-suite level.
Here's how that happened...
In my early career...
I joined a Fortune 500 company in 2008, focusing on senior finance appointments. For nearly eight years, I placed finance leaders into Fortune 500 companies and watched the patterns of who got hired - and more importantly, who didn't.
I learned a critical truth: 87% of the best executive roles never make it to job boards. They're filled through relationships and networks that most finance professionals don't have access to.
This experience taught me that the hidden market is where real opportunities exist.
In 2016...
I decided to build something of my own. I founded a boutique executive search firm focused on placing the top 1% of finance talent across the UK, Europe, and the US.
Over the next nine years, I built one of the most respected senior finance executive search firms, maintaining a 100% retained search success rate. I placed hundreds of finance leaders into C-suite roles at PE-backed businesses, listed companies, and scale-ups globally.
But I kept seeing the same problem: exceptional finance professionals were struggling to make the leap from technical expert to strategic leader-not because they lacked capability, but because they didn't know how to position themselves or access the right networks.
Built a 7-figure recruitment business with a 100% success rate.
In 2024...
After 18 years of placing finance leaders and building a 7-figure recruitment business, I saw a gap that needed to be filled. The best finance professionals were spending hours applying to roles, hoping someone would recognize their potential. Meanwhile, the roles they actually wanted were being filled through networks they couldn't access.
That's why I created the Finance Career Programme.
The FCP isn't another career coaching service. It's a systematic approach that combines my 18 years of executive search intelligence with proven frameworks that compress what typically takes years into months.
Our members don't just find jobs-they secure strategic leadership roles at companies preparing for IPO, navigating rapid expansion, or driving transformational change. The same organizations I've been placing executives into for nearly two decades.
Created a community that has generated £3.6 million in salary increases for members.
FCP has become the fastest growing community for senior finance leaders internationally across the UK, Europe, US, and UAE.
In 2025...
I realized that even with the right positioning and network access, finance leaders were still wasting hours on manual applications. So I built ExecConnect-an AI-powered platform that revolutionizes executive recruitment.
ExecConnect is the first platform that goes beyond matching to actually applying for jobs on behalf of executives. Built on proven Finance Career Programme methodology and featuring a LinkedIn-native CRM, ExecConnect combines multi-channel automation with AI-powered matching to help executives secure premium roles with 10x higher response rates.
It launches in 2026, and it's going to change how senior finance professionals approach their careers.
Building the future of executive recruitment with AI.
My mission...
I'm a husband and father to two children-Tyler, 11, and Ariella, 4. Family comes first, always.
I pride myself on being a massive action taker. I don't believe in waiting for the perfect moment-I believe in creating it. Whether it's building businesses or transforming careers, I lead with authenticity, integrity, and a commitment to doing what's right.
My mission is to help as many senior finance leaders achieve success, build a family office investing in a portfolio of companies, and make FCP the most respected community and programme for senior finance leaders in the world.
That's my story.
If you're a senior finance professional ready to access the hidden job market and accelerate your path to the C-suite, the methodologies that have placed thousands of leaders are now available to you.
