Executive Search

Employers are struggling to recruit because they are being swamped by unsuitable candidates, while the talented individuals they are looking for are staying put, fearing that the economy is too volatile to risk changing jobs.

These are the main findings from the annual Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) resourcing and talent planning survey, produced in partnership with Hays.

At Hamilton Reeves we understand this challenging issue for today’s business leaders. We review all angles of this complex problem and together with our clients, work in partnership to confront each situation with a fresh perspective.

We work to provide a fully bespoke solution. Working closely with our clients and candidates, we take time to listen, question intuitively and feedback our understanding of both sides of the recruitment exercise, in terms of expectations, motivations and ambitions. We are not just recruiters, we are Talent Acquisition Partners and as such, we take a deeply personal interest in all our candidates.

As Executive Performance Coaches, we are experienced at Management Team and Boardroom facilitations to identify and assess your Executive Talent needs. We work hard to ensure our in-depth understanding of your brief matches the insightful answers we will have gleaned from our candidates using the latest interviewing and assessment techniques.

When you meet with Hamilton Reeves, you will find our relaxed style to talk through your current business needs, a little of the history and most importantly your vision, a great opportunity to share your aspirations for your business. It is our role then to translate that into a marketable and interesting proposition for your future executives.

We will take the time to fully understand the impact you expect from any new key hire and the interface that you envisage for this new recruit. Your vision for their place in your management team is vital to a successful search exercise, and more importantly retention.

Studies from the CIPD show, that if a new employee is unlikely to succeed, or change their view on their new appointment, this will invariably be within the first six months. In addition to our recruitment service, we also work closely with the successful recruit for these initial six months. Our Executive On-Boarding service is second to none and supports your new hire with regular Executive Coaching. This ensures that any issues which arise in the first 6 months are aired and communicated effectively.

Understanding your vision and being able to communicate it will make for a successful recruitment process and create an interested pool of talent going forward, that will be the envy of your competitors. At Hamilton Reeves we are looking forward to hearing your individual stories, challenges and plans for your business. We look forward to partnering with you, both clients and candidates to deliver success in the short term and the opportunity to grow your business with a superior management team.
