About us
Most firms optimise for dependency.
We optimise for independence.
The firm
In Motion is a Talent Infrastructure firm embedded inside PE and VC-backed tech companies at the moments that matter most.
AI-multiplied. Human-led.
Senior operators who conduct the tools, not surrender to them. That distinction is everything.
We don’t fill roles and send invoices.
We don't rent you headcount. We build hiring infrastructure your business owns when we leave.
Every engagement is designed around its own exit.
We come in. We deliver and build. We transfer ownership. We step aside.
The measure of success isn't how long we stayed. It's whether you need us after we left.
Not promised. Delivered.
Not promised. Delivered.
The Team
The In Motion Standard.
Every In Motion engagement is led by a senior operator with direct experience inside the businesses we serve. Not a junior recruiter. Not a consultant with a framework. An operator who has sat in the seat, understands the pressure, and knows what good looks like.
We embed. We build. We transfer ownership. We exit.
Christiaan Thrams
Talent Infrastructure lead
Christiaan leads Talent Infrastructure engagements at In Motion. He has built hiring systems and scaled teams for technology companies across Europe, the US, and APAC — embedding directly with founders and leadership teams to build hiring engines that run independently once the engagement ends.
Claire Gifford
Head of operations
Claire co-founded In Motion and leads business strategy, client relationships, and firm operations. She brings operator-level experience inside scaling businesses, ensuring every engagement is built around a defined exit and full transfer of ownership.
Simoné Terblanche
Talent operations
Simoné runs the operational backbone behind Talent Infrastructure engagements. She ensures the systems, process discipline, and execution rhythm required to turn hiring from a reactive activity into a repeatable engine.
Amarise Muller
Talent operations
Amarise supports operational execution across In Motion engagements, applying analytical discipline to process design, workflow optimisation, and operational clarity. Her work ensures the infrastructure being built is structured, documented, and scalable.
If your hiring is on your critical path — that’s the problem we exist to solve.
