About ♡ Pay It Forward

Bespoke Engagements

For mandates that deserve something built.

Some challenges do not fit a standard package. For high-stakes, six and seven-figure partnerships, we design an engagement entirely around your goals, led from the top.

When to Call Us

If the brief looks like this.

Hiring at scale, against the clock

Hundreds of specialist hires in a single quarter, without ever lowering the bar.

Talent that barely exists

A senior team in a field where the right people are rare, sought-after and heavily contested.

Entering a new market

Building a workforce in a country or sector where your name means little yet.

A workforce reshaped by AI

Rebuilding the capabilities you hire for as automation rewrites entire functions.

Senior and confidential

A leadership or board-level mandate that cannot touch the open market.

A capability built from scratch

Standing up a new team, division or function where none exists today.

A considered investment, not a packaged service.Bespoke mandates are tailored and senior-led, and priced accordingly. The conversation tends to be most useful when you already have a clear mandate and a sense of the budget in mind.

How It Works

Built around you.

A Private Conversation

It begins with a private call, direct with our CEO, to understand what you are trying to achieve.

A Tailored Mandate

We design a bespoke engagement drawing on the full breadth of our ecosystem.

Delivered with Care

A senior team sees it through, with the discretion and rigour high-stakes work demands.

The Person Behind the Mandate

Sixteen years, in the room.

Ben Ho

Founder and CEO, Talentbank

Bespoke mandates are led personally by Ben, who founded Talentbank in 2010 on a simple conviction: that employability is too important to leave to chance, and that the right talent and the right employer should always be able to find each other.

Over the sixteen years since, he has built the relationships that sit behind this work, across more than a hundred universities, ten thousand employers, industry bodies and government, and has advised at a national level on employability. He has spent those years in the rooms where these decisions are made.

For the most complex mandates, that experience is brought to bear directly. When you engage Talentbank at this level, you are working with Ben.

A Private Consultation With Our CEO

Some mandates deserve a conversation with the CEO.

For organisations seeking a highly customised strategy, our CEO offers a select number of private fifteen-minute calls. This is where six and seven-figure partnerships begin. We work with candour: if a mandate cannot be delivered, we say so at the outset; if we take it on, we see it through.

A private fifteen-minute call, direct with our CEO | Bespoke, six and seven-figure engagements | Only three or four engagements taken on each year | Every conversation is private and held in confidence
