Our roots trace back more than 30 years, when our CEO, Kevin Cruickshank, first stepped into the world of data and risk at Dun & Bradstreet. It was there that his expertise in business identity, compliance, and financial services began, foundations that still shape the way Engage operates today.
After leading the Banking and Financial Services organisation at one of the world’s foremost KYB businesses, Kevin launched Engage PSG, combining a data-led mindset with the principles of high-touch executive search.
Since then, the firm has evolved from a UK-based search business into a global specialist with teams in London, Los Angeles, and Sydney. Our consultants bring together decades of collective experience across Digital Identity, Risk, Fraud, and Compliance — disciplines that continue to define modern trust and security.
Engage PSG’s growth has been driven by a shared commitment to precision and partnership.

Engage PSG is founded within the Compello Staffing Group, a £65m global recruitment network.
Expansion into Manchester, Germany, San Francisco, and Sydney, establishing international reach.
Management Buyout completed, giving rise to a new era of independence and focus.
Integration of in-house research capabilities and launch of the Los Angeles office to serve North American markets.
Behind every search is a team of researchers, consultants, and market specialists who live and breathe the industries they serve. Many have held in-house or operational roles within the same ecosystems they now recruit for, giving them both empathy and edge in how they represent clients and candidates alike.
We’re proud to act as true ambassadors for our clients, communicating their story, their culture, and their opportunity with accuracy and conviction.
