Over 20 years in executive search has given me the opportunity to partner with an incredible group of people, businesses, and organisations globally. I draw on this to consult on executive search as a tool to develop teams across corporate, regulated, and high growth businesses. My expertise is often best used when facing fresh or unchartered challenges - advising how to deliver niche, specialist & C-suite talent, particularly within the context of growing high performing teams & boards.The compelling part of executive search for me goes well beyond making connections - it plays a huge role in driving business growth & transformation. Building long-term relationships is key to this. I prefer pragmatism to well-engineered narratives. The results are better. Talk to me about what this means for executive search. Being an independent headhunter backed by 20 years in the industry leaves me free to be agile, objective, confidential and completely focused on results. I’m passionate about, and only deliver retained executive search. The core of the process always includes rigorous in-depth research & selection. An approach made modular to fit the assignment based on global operations, confidentiality, sector, and urgency. Where do your priorities lie - long term development & succession planning? Bespoke assessment and psychometric evaluation can be central to getting a wonderful cultural fit. I’m always keen to discuss insights on issues shaping your industry and people.
