Our Search practice focuses on the provision of senior executives to financial institutions and multinational corporations.

The search commences with a detailed briefing from the client allowing our consultants to understand the ideal individual being sought, the role, and the organisational context. With this understanding, the consultants with the researchers proceed to the search phase. During this stage consultants, using pure search techniques seek out and directly approach individuals, initially to determine match and if appropriate establish interest.

Our search consultants’ successes stem from their ability to grasp the context of the search, and intelligently communicate the opportunity to prospective candidates, articulating the value, benefit and progression the transition will impact on an individual’s career. It is often this commercial perspective rather than the task of candidate identification and sourcing that allows us to consistently present high caliber profiles to our clients, who are capable of having a significant impact on the organisation. We understand that our task is to ensure that the selected individual actually joins our client organization. Success hinges on ensuring the fit from both client and candidate perspectives and the relationship we develop prior and during the search process with both parties.

Our focus is on the recruitment of mid-tier roles for banks and multinational corporations.

We will recommend a Selection rather than a Search approach to a given project generally when looking at middle rather than senior management positions.

Selection typically involves Consultants taking a detailed description from the client and adopting a combination of market knowledge, various means of advertising and internal databases to generate a shortlist of interested quality candidates. Managing the client’s selection, the subsequent interview process, and thereafter, the offer and acceptance stages and ultimately ensuring a smooth integration into your organisation is where the process concludes.

In addition, the research team is able to offer a range of bespoke value-added services such as competitor intelligence and industry overviews.
