Udemy was in search of a strategic executive partner to support a member of their C-Suite; someone trustworthy, capable of driving key initiatives and managing complex projects, and contributing to high-level business operations. After working with two agencies without success, Udemy was frustrated with their results. Maven was brought in to find their "unicorn;” someone with experience in fast-paced environments, board and investor-facing experience, project ownership skills, familiarity with public company operations, and a proven ability to influence strategic outcomes.

Maven quickly assessed the challenges Udemy was facing, advised on market conditions and how to refine the search criteria. Within the first 24 hours of launching the search, Maven sent over a slate of top-tier candidates, including the “unicorn” Udemy had been searching for and ultimately hired, one of the very first 4 candidates submitted.
