Executive Search
We help companies hire remarkable people, to lead and grow thriving teams
Great leaders build amazing workplaces where people and ideas flourish.
Great leaders are hard to find and secure, and managing the hiring process with top executive and C-suite level candidates requires a high level of mastery to get the outcomes you want.
So whether you’re searching for a new leader, or considering making an internal appointment (and need to benchmark your existing talent pool with the external market), partnering with a trusted executive search firm is undoubtedly the most effective solution.
Of course, we’re biased, but we think you should consider partnering with us!
With more than 20 years in the trenches, helping companies build and diversify their leadership teams and boards, we’d love to help you too. We look beyond the obvious – sometimes in unlikely places – drilling deep and hammering away until we’ve found the right ones.

FAQs
Q: What’s the difference between executive search firms, headhunter firms, executive recruitment firms and executive placement agencies?
A: We totally understand why this must be confusing! The executive search industry is not regulated, and so companies that do the work of executive recruitment can categorise or label themselves any way they like. So ask lots of questions about the process, methodology, and deliverables. For a c-suite executive search process, there should be a dedicated team of experienced executive recruiters working on the search project, proactively identifying and reaching out to relevant leaders, conducting a rigorous screening and interviewing process, and ensuring delivery of a high quality shortlist of suitably qualified candidates.
Q: As Edtech recruitment experts, which executive placement roles do you focus on?
A: We help Edtech and Workplace Learning companies to fill their most challenging roles across their Sales, Revenue and Customer Success teams. Roles include Chief Revenue Officers, Chief Sales & Marketing Officers, Chief Customer Success Officers and related roles at SVP & VP levels.
When we’re helping companies to build out their sales and revenue organisations, we can also support with individual contributors (GTM Strategists, Regional Sales Directors, Senior Sales Executives, Senior Account Executives, etc)
