Our Story

Unlocking Golden Opportunities.

Auriva was established to challenge the traditional recruitment model. After years of observing how volume‑driven processes often compromise quality, Dr Divya Negi set out to create a firm where every search is thoughtful, evidence‑based, and personally led.

With a background shaped by academic discipline and industry insight, Dr Negi brings a level of analytical rigour in recruitment. This foundation allows Auriva to operate with precision-understanding not only the technical demands of finance roles but also the commercial, cultural, and behavioural factors that determine long‑term fit.

Today, Auriva partners with SMEs and high‑growth businesses, and established corporates across the UK, supporting them in building resilient, high‑performing finance teams.
