Executive Search

Leadership Hiring,
Precisely Executed

Our executive search practice is built on a single principle: that the right leadership hire requires a disciplined, intelligence-led approach — not a database search.

Our Process

The Search Methodology

01

Discovery & Brief Definition

We begin every engagement with a comprehensive discovery process. Working directly with your leadership team, we develop a precise brief that captures not just the technical requirements of the role, but the leadership qualities, cultural attributes, and strategic capabilities that will define success.

02

Market Mapping & Candidate Identification

Armed with a clear brief, our consultants conduct a thorough mapping of the relevant talent landscape. We identify both active and passive candidates, drawing on our proprietary networks, market intelligence, and research capabilities to build a comprehensive picture of available talent.

03

Assessment & Evaluation

Every candidate is rigorously assessed against the agreed brief. Our evaluation process combines structured competency-based interviews, leadership assessment frameworks, and reference intelligence to provide you with a clear, evidence-based view of each individual's suitability.

04

Presentation & Placement

We present a curated shortlist of the most qualified candidates, accompanied by detailed assessment reports. We then support the interview process, facilitate offer negotiations, and provide onboarding counsel to ensure a successful transition for both client and candidate.

Confidentiality

Discreet Search Capability

Many of the most consequential leadership appointments require absolute discretion. Whether you are replacing an incumbent, creating a new strategic role, or conducting a search that must remain confidential for competitive reasons, Clarion Advisory has the capability and the protocols to manage the process with complete confidentiality.

Our discreet search engagements are managed by senior consultants who understand the sensitivity of the mandate. We engage candidates with care, protect client identity where required, and ensure that the search process does not create unintended market signals.

Confidentiality is not an add-on service for us — it is a fundamental aspect of how we operate at the executive level.
