Leadership hiring is not a faster version of ordinary recruitment. The people you want are not applying anywhere, they will not respond to a job advert, and the search usually cannot be made public at all.
Overview
Leadership hiring is not a faster version of ordinary recruitment. The people you want are not applying anywhere, they will not respond to a job advert, and the search usually cannot be made public at all.
Our executive search practice runs on a retained, exclusive basis. A dedicated consultant maps the relevant companies and people in your market, approaches them confidentially, assesses them against a competency framework agreed with you, and gives you a market intelligence report alongside the shortlist.
What's Included
A researched map of the companies and people who could do this job, not just those who are visibly looking.
Candidates are approached discreetly, with your identity disclosed only at a stage you are comfortable with.
Structured, competency-based interviews against a framework agreed with you, with written assessment reports.
Compensation benchmarks, talent availability and why candidates said yes or no — useful even before you hire.
Detailed reference conversations with former managers, peers and reports, conducted with the candidate's consent.
We stay in contact through notice period and the first months, which is when leadership hires most often wobble.
How It Runs
Agree the role, the competency framework, the target company list and the search timeline. Retainer stage one is invoiced.
We build the long list from the mapped market and approach candidates confidentially.
Competency interviews, written assessments and a shortlist of typically four to six genuinely relevant candidates.
Client interviews, referencing, offer structuring and negotiation, then support through notice period and joining.

FAQs
Because the work happens before there is a shortlist. Mapping a market, approaching senior people confidentially and assessing them properly takes weeks of consultant time, and it cannot be done on the chance that a placement might result. A retainer buys you that research — and you receive the market intelligence even if you decide not to hire.
Completely, if you need it to be. We can approach the market without naming you, brief candidates under NDA, and exclude named competitors or your own group companies from the search. Confidential replacements where the current incumbent does not know are a routine part of this practice.
Typically five to seven weeks to a shortlist, and three to five months from engagement to joining once notice periods are factored in. Niche or heavily regulated roles can take longer, and we will say so at the briefing rather than at week eight.
Retained mandates carry an extended guarantee period, agreed per engagement and usually longer than the 90 days we offer on permanent staffing. If the appointment fails within that window we rerun the search under the original fee.
