WHAT WE DO
9. SENIOR EXECUTIVE
SEARCH
Executive leadership teams define the culture and impact of their organizations. We offer
a powerful track record of working with organizations in different sectors to strengthen
their senior teams through recruitment. We bring an excellent and intuitive
understanding of how organizational context influences who is suitable for a leadership
appointment, and how potential can be fulfilled. We pay attention to diversity in its
truest sense, and to leadership style, as well as skills and experience. Our service includes
onboarding, personal development planning and informal mentoring.
10. CEO
RECRUITMENT
Every Chief Executive brief is different and our approach to the search begins with
an exploration of the role and its place in organizational context and strategy. Our
team has an outstanding track record of success in filling CEO appointments first
time round. Our approach is firmly grounded in thorough briefing, a personalized
approach to executive search, and appropriate and well-managed selection
processes. For all CEO appointments, our service is underpinned by good planning,
sound advice and effective stakeholder management.
11. INTERIM TALENT
Recruiting interim managers has changed beyond recognition over the last decade.
Organizations continue to require exceptional interim leadership during periods of
major change and transition. Our dedicated interim practice offers extensive
networks of proven leaders available to take on shorter-term assignments. In a post
Covid-19 world, when creating more agile teams, your organization may need specific
support in specialist areas; we can source appropriate consultancy support as
organizations re-evaluate their future delivery models. We have specific expertise in
sourcing interim chief executives, senior directors and change management leads.
12. Our team offers deep insight and expertise in board building and searching for
exceptional non-executive directors, chairs and trustees. We handle individual
and multiple appointments, paid and voluntary, and are skilled at finding
talented people who bring diverse and complementary experiences to any
board setting. Diversity in its truest sense remains a priority for exceptional
search across all our sectors. We have years of experience of securing
candidates from underrepresented groups and of searching across all
demographics.
BOARD SEARCH
AND DEVELOPMENT
13. ASSESSMENT
When our clients appoint new leaders, we provide the thoughtful and
meaningful insights they need to make the best hiring decisions for their
organization. Using carefully selected psychometric tools and rigorous profiling
interviews with a trained psychologist, our clients can be certain that they have
complete insight into the shortlisted candidates’ strengths and risks. They can
confidently appoint a leader who will best fit their culture and best achieve the
organization's strategic vision.
14. Starfish Search is trusted by clients to carry out discreet engagement projects,
behind the scenes. Not every client wishes to advertise their most senior
appointments. We can work with you to manage your relationships at the
highest levels, combining search with diplomacy.
