Executive Search
Supporting values-led organisations to deliver their ambitions and objectives by engaging the best people.
We are passionate about supporting educational institutions and businesses, rural and agricultural organisations, BIDs, charities and trade bodies through the people they appoint.
Education is a core area of our work, advising boards and owners of education businesses on leadership and non executive/ governor appointments. Please click here to download a summary of our work in this sector.
Wild Search
We work with boards and chief executives to identify outstanding candidates for leadership, board and senior management appointments.
Established in 2010, Wild Search is a well-connected, executive search and advisory company which has developed a community built from long-term relationships of both clients and candidates we have engaged with through searches, reports and partnerships.
Our specialisms include conducting searches for Chief Executives (CEO), Chief Financial Officers (CFO), Chief Operating Officers (COO), Fundraising Directors, Commercial Directors, business development and sales roles, chairs, board members and trustees within charities, foundations, membership bodies and BIDs, schools, multi-academy trusts and commercial education groups.
Increasingly we are engaged to advise on both new roles in established organisations and the appointment of founding Directors, Heads or Chief Executives and board members for start ups.
We are experienced in conducting board and merger reviews, salary benchmarking reviews and strategy development reports.
““I’m motivated by providing clients with choices and the candidates with an exciting, challenging and rewarding role where they can make a profound and sustained difference to both the organisation and the staff they lead””
It is a journey…
Join the journey with Wild Search as we help find you the right outcome for your organisation.
Advisory
Wild Search bring substantial experience and contacts to enable us to advise new and existing clients at critical times in their evolution. As a consequence, we are well placed to provide strategic and board reviews.
What we advise on
Remuneration Reports
Wild Search has developed a strong track record of advising chief executives and boards on senior appointments. As a consequence, we have developed detailed knowledge and undertaken research into remuneration and benchmarking. A growing number of clients have retained us to provide confidential reports to enable them to review or establish the terms for members of their senior teams or board members.
We combine both rigorous research across comparable organisations within and, where relevant, outside the sectors to complement our existing knowledge.
