Client Services
Placing exceptional change and transformation professionals that make the right decisions at moments of strategic importance
Our approach to search
We work with our clients on a retained and exclusive assignment basis, offering a recruitment solution that gives the client dedicated resources, to ensure that their critical vacancy is filled as quickly as possible with a highly qualified candidate. When we agree a working partnership with your committed support, this enables a platform to take the time to make sure the best available candidates in the marketplace at any given time are found. We approach each search with a blank sheet of paper. No two organisations or requirements are the same and we invest a considerable amount of time at the start to gain a deep understanding of our clients needs for both now and the future.
Retained search is preferable in cases where a company has a pressing important position, that requires a candidate who will hold key responsibilities and whose services are integral to overall organisational success. Given the strategic importance of these positions, there is often a degree of urgency, and often confidentiality, that accompanies this type of search.
Interim Solutions
At Edward Allan we understand that sometimes you need extra help when dealing with change. Even the most successfully managed businesses can sometimes find themselves in a situation when they need to support their existing teams and bring in top-level interim talent. They can bring both a fresh outside perspective and expertise not available in house.
We have placed interim change and transformation professionals with some of the UK’s leading organisations, providing access to a wealth of experience and cross-functional expertise. We only place interims that we have met and assessed – so that when you need to hire one you will get a focused shortlist rapidly.
