Executive Search Process

01

Kick-off Meeting: Understanding Your Needs

We begin with an in-depth meeting to learn about your company, the specific role, and your strategic goals. The result is a clear and detailed job analysis and job description that will guide the entire search process.

02

Talent Market Analysis & Longlist

Based on the job analysis, I’ll conduct a thorough talent market analysis to provide insights into the available talent landscape. From there, I’ll create an initial longlist of candidates for us to review and fine-tune, ensuring we have the right profile in mind.

03

Targeted Outreach to Top Prospects

With the refined profile in hand, I’ll reach out to top candidates who align with your requirements. I handle the initial engagement, presenting the opportunity and interviewing prospects to ensure they are a strong fit both for the role and your company culture.

04

Shortlist of Qualified Candidates

Once I’ve conducted my screening and interviews, I’ll present you with a shortlist of around 10 highly qualified candidates. You can then start your internal interview process with confidence, knowing these individuals meet your key criteria.

05

Final Selection

Together, we’ll narrow the field to 2-3 finalists, each of whom is carefully vetted and ready for final consideration. You’ll have top-tier choices to select from.

06

Offer & Signing

Once you’ve chosen your ideal candidate, I’ll assist in the final stages to ensure a smooth signing process. Congratulations—you’ve secured your next executive leader!
