Executive Search
Engineering leadership. A longer process, a smaller shortlist, and more discretion than the rest of what we do.
What this suits
Heads of engineering, infrastructure and security, and the first senior technical hire into a growing business.
These roles are rarely filled by people who are actively looking. The work is mapping who’s doing the job well elsewhere and making a credible approach, which takes longer and produces a shorter list. Expect four or five names rather than a dozen, and expect to be able to ask real questions about each of them.
- Mapped search rather than an advertised role
- Confidential approach where the hire is sensitive
- Staged fee, set out in full before you commit
- We brief you on the market, not just the candidates
If you’re replacing someone who’s still in the seat, we’ll run it quietly. Nobody we approach hears your company name until we’ve established they’re interested and discreet.
Committed to your satisfaction
A staged fee is standard here because of the time involved. We’ll set out exactly what’s payable and when before anything starts, and there are no fees beyond what’s in that agreement.
