Leadership Services

Pioneering sustainability through purpose-driven leadership

From C-Suite to boardroom, securing leadership talent and building a future-proof executive team is no easy task, particularly in the cleantech and renewable energy sectors. These industries are often faced with unique challenges, such as technical, economic and regulatory complexities, increasing consumer demands, and intense competition. Therefore, the need for highly specialised and experienced leaders to drive their mission-critical initiatives is imperative.

This is where our executive search and recruitment services come in.

We support our clients in securing key placements that will propel their business forward through a blend of industry analysis, cultural assessments, and an evaluation of existing board and management dynamics. Executive search to us means far more than filling a role. It means transforming your business into a competitive asset and setting you up for long-term success.

How do our leadership services work?

When it comes to an organisation’s most senior-level roles, finding the perfect candidate can be a far more rigorous, drawn-out, and research-heavy process than hiring an entry-level or middle-management position. Executive search hiring typically requires you to seek out the most qualified candidates, whereas contingent recruitment involves attracting, sifting, and shortlisting applicants.

Our executive recruitment process consists of 5 very simple but thorough steps to guide your business to success.

Our executive recruitment process

Client briefing

Discuss and agree the assignment brief and approach.

Research

Conduct extensive research of your business, industry, and strategy to build a profile of your ideal candidate.

Screening

Headhunt high-performing individuals using talent mapping methodologies and prepare shortlist.

Shortlist meeting

Work in partnership through the interview and offer stages.

3-month review

Regularly touch base with both client and candidate, monitoring satisfaction and facilitating feedback.

Executive Search

A successful executive search requires rigorous analysis, creativity, logic, and sound judgement. Through market intelligence and research, we provide organisations with the tools to identify, attract and develop extraordinary executives with the ability to drive business forward.

Industry analysis, cultural assessment and the evaluation of existing board and management dynamics provides a vital backdrop. This enables us to support clients in securing innovative candidates with the experience to lead their businesses.

Our executive search consultants combine specialist industry and functional expertise with cultural and geographic knowledge to ensure our clients have a dynamic selection of candidates to choose from. Through global collaboration and exceptional functional and industry expertise, we guide businesses towards appointments that will transform their business and secure their future.

Board Advisory

In a highly disruptive world, a future-focused board is a powerful strategic asset for any company and leadership team. That’s why we work with clients to search, assess and appoint a diverse range of forward-thinking Chair, Non-Executive and Board Directors that uniquely fit the strategic, governance and cultural requirements of an organisation.

Increasingly, executive boards can elevate the capabilities of leadership to achieve strategic outcomes. To do so effectively, they must unleash the power of varied perspectives and experiences through collaborative behaviour. This has created a demand for diverse and experienced board talent. Simultaneously, the marketplace for board talent is on the rise, as the private market is actively engaging large numbers of independent directors.

We have access to and are working with the world’s largest and most inclusive network of board-ready talent across all sectors, functions and geographies. In addition, our validated board succession process is designed to deliver compliance, performance, and strategic impact for organisations and all stakeholders.
