Global reach

Our philosophy of search without borders applies as much to geography as it does to industry verticals. The world is now one stage and many of the highest performers available to our clients will be found beyond the UK. In a hyper-connected world, the ability to connect with candidates wherever they may be is a basic requirement of effective executive search.

But at its heart lies something of a conundrum: can the insights of your executive search partner survive the journey intact to a candidate thousands of miles away? Many firms effectively outsource international assignments, resulting in people acting on your behalf whom you have never met and who have no understanding of your organisation. Perrett Laver takes a different approach by punctuating our globalised horizons with expertise drawn from our colleagues in some of the best executive search firms around the world.

Responsibility for every aspect of a global search sits exclusively with our UK-based consultants and multi-lingual researchers. Having been briefed by you, it is this team that will personally deliver every element of the assignment – drawing as much on the global perspective of our domestic team as on the insight, experience and wisdom of our overseas partners – but ultimately conducting all direct contact with candidates themselves. As well as ensuring your organisation is accurately represented at every stage, this enables us to measure each candidate against the realities of the UK environment.
