Executive Search
The need for high performing leaders remains a constant for all types of organisations. We offer tailor-made, research-led, and strategically targeted search. We take time to understand your organisation - your culture, your strategy and your requirements for each appointment. We are committed to finding world-class talent and have honed our search methodology for more than 20 years. Our ability to identify and access talent along with an insightful approach to interviewing and assessing candidates, along with great judgement is the key to a successful outcome.
Whilst we are generalist and have worked in just about every industry, we have specialist knowledge in Heritage, the Arts and Culture having worked for Museums, Art Institutions and Art Foundations, Theatres, Houses & Gardens in the UK and internationally. We also have a thorough knowledge of Communications and Consumer Industries globally.
We feel strongly that we have a duty of care not only to our clients, but to our candidates too and ensure they are treated with respect and integrity, ensuring they are kept informed throughout the process, whether they are the successful candidate on a particular search, or not.
Tailor-made and Research-led
When you want to initiate a search, you will be working with an experienced search consultant who has been in industry for more than 20 years. They will develop a strategy for each search and lead the whole process including helping you successfully complete the final negotiations. To support the transition into your organisation we offer on-boarding advice and 100-day coaching to the newly appointed executive.
Understanding your Organisation
Wherever possible we will travel to your location, and talk to a range of executives and teams with which the appointee will be working with. Alternatively, we will set up a series of online meetings, delving into the characteristics of the organisation to understand not only the work environment, your values and culture but the business challenges you face as organisation.
Developing the Brief
We will spend timing refining the job profile, key challenges and expectations for the successful candidate. We develop this into a compelling candidate information pack.
Finding World-class Talent
We use multiple resources and strategies to access our candidates, including various databases, industry information and of course drawing on the vast network that we’ve built up over the years. We search creatively and rigorously to identify the best talent. We screen candidates thoroughly using in-depth interviews and, if required psychometric testing.
