Job description

I'm currently representing a retained executive search firm, founded and led by a diverse team of women and leaders of colour. They have an unrivalled track record of nearly two decades guiding and implementing an inclusive search process, centering both their work and their culture in equity and inclusion.

The firm was established in the early 2000s by Partners who previously worked together at major global search firms. Their clients include leading corporations, global and national nonprofits, public sector entities, social impact and entrepreneurial organizations.

Their team brings extensive experience and credentials in senior-level recruitment. Speaking eight languages, with experience living on four continents, and having led search assignments in more than 15 countries, they have a deep understanding of the multicultural needs of their global clients.

They reflect their commitment to diversity-equity-inclusion by embedding it as a core value in every aspect of their culture, their inclusive search approach, and their business model as a minority-owned firm.

Over the past 19 years, they have built a reputation for maintaining high quality relationships, advancing opportunity for leaders from historically underrepresented populations, and consistently achieving superior results in the execution of our assignments.

A significant proportion of their business comes from repeat clients, and they are proud of a 100% completion rate. Reflecting an urgent demand for their inclusive approach to executive search – one that they have long-anticipated and built a reputation to deliver upon – putting them in an exciting period of growth.

With exciting growth plans ahead, they are seeking a new Partner who reflects their values and commitment to high-quality search work.
