Executive Career Consulting
After interviewing thousands of executive candidates, we have realized that the executive search service is leaving out candidates which do not immediately fit with an open position. We understand that our business is finding “A needle in a haystack” but we also want to support those executives who do not fit with one of our open roles.
This is why we have built a career consultancy service that is tailor-made for you. Whether that is staying in corporate, starting your own business, or changing careers.
