3. STRATEGY & VISION
Their vision is to become the market leading Contingency, Interim and Search & Selection firm within
the insurance sector on a global basis. Their strategy has been to focus on disciplines that are in high
demand within the insurance sector, but in short supply. They use a proactive search methodology
within a predominantly contingency model to add value

capability of undertaking high end or sensitive
searches on a more formal basis.

From these locations their geographic reach for their core areas of expertise lies mainly across the
UK, Ireland and Continental Europe although they also have strong networks in Bermuda, Singapore,
Hong Kong, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia, although this is
more as a candidate pool rather than client base at this point.

• They are a dynamic organisation that has recruited confident, down-to-earth individuals who
are results-driven, ambitious and motivated to become experts in their chosen disciplines and
markets
• They operate a meritocracy and reward on performance rather than the length of time
someone has worked for them. They always look to promote from within their own business
and heavily encourage staff to use their initiative and suggest new ideas.
• Rewards are individual commission-based rather than pooled or as an annual bonus.
• They have a quarterly Lunch Club for the top performers and also a quarterly target once a
year that, once achieved, results in the entire business being taken away on a long 5*
weekend away. Previous trips have included Puerto Banus, the Algarve, Palma, Barcelona and
