Executive Search

The cost of a bad hire can be significant! In fact, a bad hire costs 2.5x the failed employee’s first years’ salary. For some leadership roles, that could mean a six-figure mistake, not to mention the potential damage to team confidence and morale. Executive Search at any level into your organisation is undoubtedly one of the biggest investment decisions you have to make, that’s why at Collingwood we don’t just fill roles, we help you build teams that drive long-term success.

We specialise in Executive Search for MedTech & HealthTech, Private Healthcare, Building Products & Construction and Technology businesses helping you gain access to the best talent in your industry or indeed from outside it too.

Clients tell us that we’re not just recruiters, we’re their strategic talent partners.

Talent Mapping

Would it be valuable to understand the candidate landscape before making a critical hire?

One of our clients recently faced a £250,000 setback after they made a poor hiring decision due to a lack of data in their recruitment process. However, after investing in our talent mapping service, they gained confidence to back into the recruitment market and successfully hired a top Sales Leader who is now on track to triple their annual revenue!!

Talent Mapping is a proactive, research led service that gives you the clarity and confidence to plan ahead, avoid costly mistakes, and build a stronger leadership candidate pipeline.  It provides you with live data about the calibre of talent your competitors employ, where talent lives geographically and salary benchmarking. It enables you to make pre-recruitment decisions with confidence. For some businesses, it’s not just about wasted salary; it’s about lost momentum, missed opportunities, and the impact on team morale. At Collingwood Executive Search, we don’t just help you hire, we help you make smarter, more strategic talent decisions.
