Hiring a senior leader

Hiring a CXO, VP or director needs a quieter approach than a job post. We search confidentially, approach people directly and assess leadership as well as experience.

Hiring a leader is different from hiring at volume. A wrong leadership hire can set a company back by years. So we run executive searches confidentially, approach people directly, and search from our offices in India, New Zealand and the US.

Every executive candidate goes through psychometric profiling and a leadership assessment. You see how they lead as well as what they have done.

How an executive search works

A confidential process for hires you cannot afford to get wrong.

01

Direct approach

We approach passive candidates through introductions and our own contacts, not job boards or public postings.

02

Leadership assessment

Psychometric profiling and a look at how each candidate leads, so you judge fit as well as track record.

03

Cross-border roles

With offices in India, New Zealand and the US, we can run a search that crosses borders, such as a country head or a remote CTO.

04

Succession planning

While we search, we note the people who could fill the next senior role too, so you have names ready when it opens.
