Who we are
Founded in the vibrant city of London in 2019, Brightsmith emerged as a visionary initiative led by the dynamic trio of Tommy Bright, Adam Smith, and Jenny Gladman. Driven by an unwavering commitment to make a profound impact, they embarked on a mission to shape a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future for our planet.
Since welcoming our first team member in 2021, our growth has been exponential. We have established two thriving offices in the United States, broadening our reach across Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Americas. Today, we are proud to have a global team of 25 extraordinary individuals who embody the very essence of Brightsmith. Each member shares our deep-rooted passion, unwavering belief, and unwavering purpose that serve as the foundation of our company. Together, we champion five essential specialisms: Hydrogen, BESS, Renewables, Mobility, and Carbon. By identifying, attracting, developing, and retaining diverse talent within the cleantech and energy transition sectors, we actively contribute to building a more sustainable future.
Sustainability underpins everything we do. We’re a relationship-focused executive talent provider within Sustainability and Cleantech. We represent companies and individuals who are passionate about providing a sustainable future through strategic change and innovation.
At Brightsmith, we want to do things in the right way. We have a strong sense of the kind of company we want to be and we are working hard to achieve this. We want to have a positive impact in making a difference in both our industry and the sectors we recruit within.
We have an underpinning belief that personal relationships are the most important factor in attracting and developing talent. Whilst our focus is around technology and innovation, our approach is ethical and human, and has a sense of purpose. We believe we have a responsibility to embrace the technological changes in our sector, whilst maintaining a human-centred approach where our work is relationship driven and purposeful.
In an industry that demands cutting-edge technical skills, Brightsmith provides the human element. We foster deep and meaningful relationships based on mutual understanding and respect. Our job is not to simply find individuals with a set of skills, but to support and help to grow a wider community with a shared sense of purpose, and to catalyse its growth through connecting the talented people and organisations within it.
Join us on our journey as we strive to redefine the future through our unwavering commitment to a cleaner, more sustainable world. Together, we can make a difference.
