Hiring peace of mind.
There is no such thing as a candidate who is “good enough.”
Senior executives drive your company’s performance, vision, and culture. Yet often, management teams look for candidates who meet functional requirements, but fall short in terms of fit, culture, and leadership qualities.
Today more than ever, candidates who are “good enough”…just aren’t. There’s no time for under-performing placements or costly, embarrassing mis-hires. We know the importance of talented executives, but even more so, those leaders with the broader personal attributes necessary for true, long-term success.

A very positive experience for all concerned
“Kurt has a personalised approach to both the organisation recruiting and the candidates themselves. His attention to detail, consideration for what the company needed to achieve and his personal care and support for the candidates made it a very positive experience for all concerned. It certainly didn’t feel like we had hired just any consultant!”
