Built by someone who has built marketplaces before.
Samuel Novick founded NovoWash, a UK ecommerce marketplace — rebranded as Sparkyl in the US, where it raised $250k and partnered with Red Bull and Crunch Fitness.
The Search Network is built on that experience scaling digital marketplaces.
The Search Network is a UK marketplace connecting young people with industry experts for career advice, mentorship, coaching and networking. This website is currently a pre-launch page: you can join the waitlist and send us a message. The marketplace itself is not live yet.
2. The waitlist
Joining the waitlist does not create an account and does not guarantee access. When the marketplace opens, we will email you at the address you gave us. You can ask to be removed at any time using the contact form.
3. Planned pricing
Prices shown on this page are planned launch prices and may change before launch. The launch offer described on this page — free premium membership for the first 1,000 students, ambassadors and society leaders — applies as described at launch, subject to availability.
4. Using this site
Please give accurate information when you sign up or contact us, and do not misuse the site or attempt to disrupt it. Content on this site is ours; please do not copy it without permission.
5. Career guidance
Career content on this site is general guidance, not professional advice tailored to your situation. Decisions about your career remain your own.
6. Liability and changes
This site is provided as available. We may update these terms and the content of this site at any time. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

1. Who we are
The Search Network is the data controller for information collected through this site.
2. What we collect
When you join the waitlist, we collect your name, email address, role and any note you add. When you send a message, we collect your name, email address and message. Our hosting provider also processes technical data needed to deliver the site, such as IP addresses in server logs.
3. Why we use it
We use waitlist details to tell you when the marketplace opens, with your consent. We use messages to reply to you, which is in our legitimate interest in running the service.
4. Who processes it
The site is hosted by Cloudflare (Workers, D1 and R2). Contact messages and waitlist notifications are delivered through Cloudflare Email Service. Typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts. We do not sell your information, and we do not use advertising trackers.
5. How long we keep it
We keep waitlist details until the marketplace launches and for a reasonable period after, so we can onboard you. We keep messages for as long as needed to deal with them. You can ask us to delete your details at any time using the contact form.
6. Your rights
See our GDPR Notice for your rights and how to exercise them.
