What kinds of roles fit Executive Search?
Critical leadership appointments, including VP, functional leadership and C-suite roles. We start with the responsibilities and business context to determine the right search scope.
Is this only for large companies?
No. The approach depends on the leadership challenge, not just company size. We discuss the role, your stage and what the hire needs to achieve.
How do you decide who to approach?
We translate the agreed brief into search criteria, research relevant companies and leadership experience, and refine the approach using your team’s feedback.
Who makes the hiring decision?
Your team does. Mavericks provides the agreed search work, candidate context and communication to support your assessment. We agree how interviews, feedback and final conversations will be handled.
Can you support a confidential leadership search?
Share the confidentiality requirements at the outset. We will agree how the role, company information and candidate conversations should be handled before we contact anyone.
