FAQs
What is executive search _______________________________ Recruitment often starts with a defined vacancy and people who are available or actively seeking a move. Executive search starts with the leadership challenge. We shape the brief, map the relevant market and approach individuals who's experience may fit, whether or not they are looking.
What happens if we don't make an appointment _______________________________ A search should still give you a clear account of the market and what it has told us about the brief. If an appointment is not made, we review the reasons together and agree whether the remit, timing or search needs to change. We will always work with you to identify a solution. Any further work is governed by the terms in the agreed outset.
How do you assess people beyond their resume _______________________________ We look at what someone has delivered, the circumstances in which they delivered it and how they exercise judgement. Conversations, structured assessment and references help us test the evidence, understand their motivation and explore how they might approach the challenge ahead. More than a decade working across complex environments, markets and cultures informs the questions we ask and helps us know where to probe further.
What if we haven't defined the brief yet _______________________________ You do not need a finished brief to begin a conversation. We can explore the outcomes the appointment needs to deliver, the decisions the person will own and the capability already in place. That support helps define the remit before the search begins.
How do you protect confidentiality _______________________________ We agree how the opportunity will be represented and when the organisation may be identified. Our client engagements are covered by confidentiality agreements, and candidates sign a non-disclosure agreement before receiving sensitive information. We limit what is shared at each stage and treat candidates' circumstances with the same discretion.
