Executive Search

Managing Confidential Assignments with Discretion

Executive search is often conducted discreetly to protect the privacy of both the client and potential candidates.

We have a proven track record in sourcing and securing accomplished leaders and senior managers. This year alone, we’ve successfully placed a number of Director-level professionals across Land, Technical, Planning, Sales and more, supporting clients within house building, construction, land promotion, consultancies and the wider built environment.

To discuss your executive search and recruitment requirements, please submit an enquiry.

Finding great leaders, placing the best talent.

How we work

Three ways of working, depending on the role and what you need.

Retained

An exclusive search where the client pays an upfront fee for dedicated, in-depth recruitment support, typically for senior or hard-to-fill roles.

Contingent

A no placement, no fee service where the recruiter is only paid upon successfully placing a candidate.

Most of our work

Exclusive

A commitment to work with one recruitment partner only on a vacancy, ensuring a more focused and consultative search without competing agencies.

This is the majority of our work and delivers the best results.
