Founder & Principal Advisor

Lance Gold, founder of Plan B Careers View Lance on LinkedIn

Lance founded Plan B Careers in 2023 after more than three decades spent on every side of the hiring table.

He began in HR, spending eight years as HR Manager and HR Business Partner at Group Five (“Structured Ingenuity”), before founding and running his own recruitment consultancy, Parachute People Solutions. He served the construction and retail sectors through that business for 22 years.

He went on to work as Talent Acquisition Business Partner at Mott MacDonald, a global engineering and development consultancy operating in over 150 countries. He founded Plan B Careers to bring that inside knowledge of how senior hiring works to individual leaders navigating their own next move.

“A natural relationship builder… has built a reputation for having the client’s best interests at heart.”

— Natalie Heine, colleague at Parachute People Solutions
