Executive Search

We specialise in key senior roles, primarily in Financial Services, Fintech and Sustainability.

Recruiting at senior level requires a nuanced approach as there is a limited pool of excellent people; they are seldom actively looking and are typically reluctant to 'Apply' to an online advertisement.

Our starting point is a network built over 25 years, and our expertise lies in uncovering and approaching the people you want to speak with.

We take an assignment off your desk, give you peace of mind and manage the process smoothly to conclusion.
