Job Description:

A Lucrative Opportunity in Executive Search for a Massively Growing Firm

The Company:

A highly specialised and research-focused human capital advisory firm.

As award-winning, executive search experts, boasting a successful 20-year history, this firm has earned a fantastic reputation within a number of fields spanning asset management, consumer & retail and strategy (to name a few).

They excel in providing consultancy and retained search services to publicly and privately owned companies across the world.

The Role:

Join as an Associate Consultant, on a 3 year rotation programme, learning executive search techniques across different sectors. Ongoing tasks include:

• Attending initial client meeting to understand the role requirements, company culture and expectations for the search
• Work with senior team members to establish the scope of a search, utilising a variety of databases to build a map of relevant sectors and companies
• Speak to market sources to collect relevant diligence on companies and potential candidates
• Make first contact with prospective candidates, understand their relevancy for a role and engage them in the process by advising them on how the opportunity aligns with their career goals
• Meet with candidates to assess experiential and behavioural fit, through competency-based interviewing, tailored to each search
• Produce the longlist, shortlist, and appraisal documentation for clients
• Be a liaison and trusted adviser to both candidates and the client throughout the process. Assist the search lead in taking formal references on favoured candidates

• Project Driven - this is very research based and consultative role. You may only contact 3 or 4 candidates per project you work on. it’s all about finding the right person for the role. Understanding exactly what the client is looking for is integral
• Structured Progression – you’ll be getting into a senior associate role in 3 years, principal in 6 and partner in 10/11 years
• Salary - £36k salary – with an OTE of £45-50k, this increases in year 2 to £40k, year 3 to £45k
• Benefits – private healthcare, 50% off theatre tickets. £2.5k allowance, for conferences and networking, £600 for a mobile phone, and an accredited executive search qualification
