Executive Research & Sourcing

We partner with you to identify the appropriate skills and KPIs required to implement your strategy and explore the talent pool using a holistic approach to ensure a match.

Highly talented people are often not in the market and our approach is professional and discrete. We advise on the positioning of the role to attract and secure the right candidate, and can access onboarding and coaching to ensure the seamless and productive integration of the new executive

Scarce Skills Placement

There may be a shortage of the skills/experience you need.

Our networks are extensive spanning continents which ensures that we leave no stone unturned in our search to connect you with the appropriate talent.

Talent Mapping

You may require a pipeline of potential successors for executive positions.

A talent map of suitable candidates for each mission critical role can be compiled, so that when a vacancy arises, interviews can immediately be set up and an offer made to avoid lengthy succession delays. We also offer benchmarking for internal promotions and industry comparisons.

Executive Candidate Marketing

Unique talent is rare, and our clients appreciate meeting candidates, even if a position may not necessarily be available at that time.

Our select clients value the connections made, and very often, create a role if the person can help grow the business.

Interim Executives

Our network includes experienced leaders who prefer contractual positions, and can be available at short notice to see your business through a period of uncertainty or growth.

Interim executives can also be placed as mentors for executives who may lack experience and knowledge, or to hold a role for unexpected reasons such as illness, death or loss of a staff member until a replacement can be found. Our executive and non-executive interim executives have extensive knowledge and can add value within a short time period.
