Founder Bio

Gavin Ng

Gavin Ng is the Founder of Minds Search, an executive search firm helping AI, technology, and private equity–backed companies in Asia build high-performing leadership teams. Based in Bangkok and working across Greater China and Southeast Asia, Gavin specializes in supporting startups, scaleups, and investor-backed ventures through thoughtful, high-context leadership hiring.

With over 20 years of experience in executive search, Gavin has advised founders and investors on hiring critical roles across technology, product, commercial, and operational functions. His approach combines clear judgment, structured assessment, and a deep understanding of how leadership needs change as companies grow — from early-stage teams to pre-IPO organizations.

Gavin believes great hiring is grounded in clarity, integrity, and partnership. He works closely with clients to understand their business, culture, and stage of growth, ensuring every search leads to leaders who can drive meaningful progress.

In addition to his work in executive search, Gavin is also an early-stage and private-market investor through M Capital, supporting founders and emerging technologies shaping the next decade.

Outside of work, Gavin serves as an executive coach, guiding leaders through personal reinvention, mindset development, and navigating growth with clarity and self-awareness.
