Although we do consider senior level roles within all sectors, we have developed Collingwood around a core number of industries and sectors. Our expertise here enables us to add more value to our clients as we live and breath their industries and are able to provide bespoke talent advice based on factual data.

Since 2005 we have been building our networks and partnerships in the following industries and sectors:

• Building Products & Construction
• Industrial Technology
• Medical Devices & Medical Technology
• Private Healthcare & Social Care

All senior appointments can vary depending on the role that you are hiring for, and how niche the sought skill set, or experience might be. Other factors which also impact will be salary and location. All our recruitment assignments are project mile-stoned for a period of between 4 and 8 weeks through to our delivery of a candidate shortlist. However, we will listen to your needs and provide a suitable solution. For example, where a hire is very urgent, we could provide a more flexible approach focused on introducing candidates as we find them. Key to timescales is the initial groundwork completed by our consultants whilst collaborating with our clients – understanding their business, the role and candidate requirements fully. Collaboration with our clients has proved to be the most important factor when ensuring the successful delivery of an executive search project.

In the rare case that a suitable candidate cannot be found that aligns to your initial brief, we will use the live market data to help guide the project to a successful outcome. It maybe that you need to compromise on an element of your requirements, but we will inform our discussion with facts that we have found from the project and also from our own experience in your industry. No matter what the situation, Collingwood are here to help you find that perfect fit and will always do our upmost to ensure your hiring role is filled first time, with the best talent the market has to offer! 97% of our retained searches were delivered successfully last year.
