Article 1: Executive search
High-calibre executives at Partner or Director level can benefit from our dedicated search service by taking advantage of our extensive network of contacts to obtain a better position.
Reasons why you might be looking for a change
The motivation for an executive to consider changing role can be for a number of diverse reasons, often including one or more of the following:
- What you have to offer can only be achieved in a different environment
- Dissatisfaction with the overall strategy and direction in which the practice or business is currently moving or expected to move in future
- Lack of support from fellow management in what you are trying to achieve
- There may be a significant mismatch between what you are currently achieving as a salaried/fixed share Partner or Director and what you are expected to achieve in order to be considered for equity status
- The path to equity is blocked for the foreseeable future
- Things are not as they were described to you when you joined
- The benefits of your current position are outweighed by the commitments to that role and the negative impact it is having on your quality of life
- You may simply no longer wish to carry the responsibilities of your present job
Reasons to use our specialist service
- You will benefit from our insider knowledge of what’s happening in the wider market rather than just opportunities within your own circle of contacts
- Whatever your reasons for contemplating a move, we can talk to you in absolute confidence about what the options for you might be. You don’t need to submit a CV up-front to talk to us
- If you have a following of clients which you can potentially take with you to your next role, it will certainly be helpful in attracting interest from alternative firms. However, a lack of following does not necessarily (in many cases) preclude firms from having an interest in you
- Talk to us in confidence and we can explore options on your behalf. An intermediary can be useful – making discreet approaches on your behalf and preserving your privacy until such a time of your choosing
- A call doesn’t commit you to anything & discretion is guaranteed
