Hays Executive was set up to provide an array of recruitment services that are complementary to those offered by other business lines within Hays and tailored to the markets in which we operate.

We typically recruit Directors and Functional Heads, operating in a market segment where historically client needs have been served by either mandating board advisory firms to operate at a level below where their real added value lies, or by relying upon middle management partners to ’raise their game’ and apply their methodology to a level of profile with which they may be unfamiliar.

Our business model relies on the ability to identify both outstanding passive and active candidates both by harnessing the massive volumes of information available in this information age and our extensive personal networks. Our consultants, who have an average of 12 years search and selection experience, all have a strong track record at other search firms and are the most senior recruiters from within the Hays Group. They have been hand-picked to ensure that their own values correspond to Hays Executive’s core principal of putting a community of knowledge to work for our clients every day.

We operate on an international basis that is genuinely seamless. Working from a single international CRM/database, this tool enables freedom of information sharing within our community. But far beyond mere tools, we share an openness and desire to cooperate in order to put client satisfaction at the centre of every decision we make. When you work with us, you are not working with one but many experts. Our will to succeed is a collective one, and we take delight in all of the successes we achieve. Each success ensures a legacy that will benefit us all.

When you choose to work with Hays Executive we take the time to study which of our services will deliver the right long term result for your organisation. Whether a direct search, advertised search and selection or business intelligence, we ensure that your interests are at the heart of every decision we make. Our teams of consultants, researchers and administrators are unashamedly enthusiastic about helping you to solve your recruitment challenges. We are transparent in our communications, proactive when dealing with the difficulties we face and above all dedicated to achieving long term success for your organisation.
