Our Process

How Our Executive Search Process Works

A senior search takes on average 8-12 weeks from first briefing to the executive starting. The process has five stages.

1
Briefing and target market analysis
Week 1
We define the competencies the role requires, the reporting structure and the list of target companies.
2
Longlist development
Weeks 2-3
Our research team maps executives across the target companies and makes first approaches.
3
Consultant interviews and shortlist
Weeks 4-6
Candidates are assessed face to face by experienced consultants; the shortlist is presented to the client.
4
Client interviews and referencing
Weeks 7-10
5
Offer, acceptance and onboarding
Weeks 11-12
We follow the executive's integration after placement.

The client's name is disclosed to candidates only once mutual interest is established.

Depending on the seniority of the role, we provide a 6-12 month guarantee.

An international candidate pool through our offices in more than 50 countries.
