About HHHub
We exist to help fintech grow
We're not a generic recruitment agency that discovered fintech last year. We were built from inside the industry, by people who spent decades in it.
Every placement we make is one more step toward a stronger European fintech ecosystem. That's not a tagline. It's why we say no to hires that won't work, even when it costs us.

Our Process
Born inside fintech, not outside it
At the end of 2023, none of us were planning to start a company. We each had ten-plus years inside fintech, and that meant we understood the industry, had strong personal networks, and had already earned some credibility in the market. Then one of us got a phone call: a friend was looking for a good CCO in Lithuania and struggling to find one. That wasn't unusual.
After years in this industry you become a connector, people ask, you make introductions, and normally that's where it ends. This time, instead of treating it as a favour, we said we knew good candidates, but if it led to a hire, it should come with proper compensation. The company agreed. We sent candidates, they interviewed, they hired one, and we got paid.
That one placement turned into a company. Since then, we've been growing and helping financial companies obtain licences and grow their businesses. We're now a team of 16, based across two offices in Vilnius and Riga, with full-time and part-time colleagues working remotely across Europe to cover different time zones and markets.
What We Stand For
Our values
These aren't poster slogans. They're the rules we actually operate by, even when they cost us a placement or a fee.
Ownership
If a candidate we place doesn't pass probation, we find you a replacement — the search isn't finished when the offer is signed, it's finished when the hire works out.
Transparent communication
If your salary expectations are off the market, or a role is genuinely hard to fill right now, we tell you in the first conversation, not eight weeks into the search.
Speed & experimentation
We don't stick with a sourcing method just because it worked before. We test new tools and approaches, keep what improves the search, and drop what doesn't — the ways of finding good people don't stand still, so neither do we.
Performance
We flag a blocker the week it appears, not the week you ask why the search has stalled — and we won't send you a candidate just to show activity when nobody actually fits.
Long-term solutions for clients
We measure a hire by whether the fintech grows because of them, not by how long they stay.
The People
Meet the team
This is HHHub: the co-founders who built it, the recruiters who run your search, and the people behind everything else. We also work with freelance recruiters across Europe who don't have a photo up here yet, but they're just as much part of the team. Connect with any of us directly on LinkedIn.
