Leonid Group is a leading, international recruiter, specialising in trade and customs compliance, export controls, and sanctions recruitment at all levels, from Analyst to Global Head.
Leonid’s mission is to ‘redefine recruitment’ and it is doing this through an innovative approach which saves hiring managers hours on the recruitment process, all the while making it more efficient and enjoyable for everyone involved. This is primarily thanks to two core services: Magic Month and LeonidLive.
The ‘Magic Month’ methodology ensures clear timelines which they are accountable for delivering, removing any ambiguity in the hiring process and delivering results that are typically three times faster than the industry average.

Video shortlists – ‘LeonidLive’ – enable hiring managers and their colleagues to get a sense of each candidate’s personality and communication skills, before deciding whether or not to proceed. This method saves Leonid’s clients on average 10 hours per hire.
As well as trade compliance hiring, Leonid also specialise in the wider corporate governance sphere (encompassing Ethics & Compliance, Risk & Audit, Legal & Data Privacy, ESG & Sustainability and Forensic Accounting).

With offices in London, Barcelona and Cape Town, Leonid works internationally and has recruited in over 50 countries. The multi-lingual team are also subject matter experts, having gained deep knowledge of their specialist area though both study and extensive, focused experience.

SEIA is a Munich-based trade compliance technology company helping trade compliance organisations move from periodic risk assessments to continuous, evidence-based assurance.

Founded in 2022 by a former trade compliance professional and a data analytics innovation leader from a Big Four firm, SEIA was built on a clear need: as geopolitical pressures intensify and regulatory scrutiny increases, our oversight and risk identification capabilities must become strategic and proactive.

SEIA PERCEIVE is the company’s core platform. It acts as a digitised assurance layer on top of an organisation’s existing compliance framework, drawing on data from across the business to provide continuous internal monitoring for red flags and operational gaps, prioritised data quality checks, business partner risk based on transactional behaviour, and real-time visibility into control effectiveness. Risk assessments become dynamic rather than static, informed by actual transaction behaviour, business partner data, and location-specific exposure rather than periodic self-reporting or spot checking.

The result is a compliance team that spends less time determining where problems might exist and more time proactively addressing them, backed by evidence rather than assumption. Data-driven, risk-based metrics also transform the dialogue between compliance functions and senior leadership, giving executives and boards the visibility they need to make informed decisions on risk tolerance, strategic investment, and regulatory exposure.
SEIA currently serves clients across defence and aerospace, life sciences, chemicals, automotive, energy and manufacturing sectors.
