Non-Executive Directors (NEDs) play a vital role in the governance and success of businesses. They are independent directors who bring skills, experience, and expertise to a Board of Directors. NEDs help to set the strategic direction of a company, provide objective oversight and guidance to management, and ensure the executive team is held accountable for their decisions.

In over two decades working in Executive recruitment, we’ve picked up a thing or two about how to nail an interview. One way to really impress your interviewer is to ask the right questions.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve likely heard of ChatGPT, however, it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are rapidly changing the world, and the search & recruitment industry is no exception. In the past, the process of finding and hiring new employees was largely manual, time-consuming, and less efficient. However, AI is quickly transforming the field, making it faster and more data-driven.

EO is a vital role for the success of a charity’s mission. Inspiring the team to make key decisions that will shape the future of the organisation, it requires expertise and dedication.

We love working with family businesses and have been doing so for more than 20 years. But hiring new leaders to come in and bolster your team brings its own challenges. Families work so hard to build companies and cultures they can proudly call their own. It takes a particular kind of board member to come into that environment, make positive changes, gel with the existing board, and build towards a bright future.

With competition for top Executive & Board talent incredibly intense, senior leadership teams must ensure their recruitment strategies are as effective and efficient as possible.
