Introduction

As a privately held boutique company we are driven by our core values of demonstrating knowledge, commitment and results to our clients. Our unrivalled insight of the European Technology, Online and CleanTech (TOC) marketplace and unwavering commitment to excellence in everything we undertake, leads to unprecedented results.

Recognising and securing talent in this dynamic and converging marketplace has never been more important. Our search process has been refined over the 90 years of combined experience gained by our five Partners.

Innovation, consultation and personal attention

We constantly strive to improve our service. Innovations such as introducing a benchmark candidate early in the process, successfully focuses a search at the crucial stage.

We utilise technology wherever possible to improve time to hire. Our Talent Video Matrix product lets clients play and replay recorded candidate interviews via a secure Web portal from anywhere in the world. This dramatically speeds up the search process, as searches increasingly become global.

A Partner personally oversees the delivery of every assignment.  We believe in team work and have highly professional research and support functions. After every search, we conduct a Client Satisfaction Audit, asking clients to evaluate our performance and results. The feedback is then used to help us continually develop and refine the quality of our service.

Driven by people and supported by technology

Underpinning every search will be fresh ‘desk based’ research to reveal the very latest emerging talent relevant to each client assignment. Our research capability is based at our head office in Beaconsfield, UK.

We hire and train our own Researchers, providing them with superb exposure to world class business process and give them clear and compelling career development options. For this reason our search team achieve premium results in compressed timescales that are the envy of the industry.

Our real-time executive network contains highly structured and relational information on those candidates and contacts we have made since our inception in 1998. Initiatives such as GS-insight, our quarterly newsletter circulated to over 30,000 TOC professionals globally, helps us makes new contacts and keep track of valued existing ones.
 
Above all we fundamentally believe in the transparency of our processes, with open and honest communication with our clients and candidates at all times.
