Executive Search
For those high-level leadership placements, sometimes the traditional hiring route isn’t enough. Some key appointments may not warrant a traditional job description, or perhaps there is a very specific blend of skill-sets required. Perhaps the appointment even involves a degree of secrecy, so cannot be advertised publicly.
We are experts in delivering tailored, streamlined Executive Search services that’ll help you find your ideal candidate, even in the most specialist or sensitive of circumstances.
Connect with the best
With a robust, long-standing reputation in senior executive and specialist hires, we at Acuma are acutely positioned to find that essential ingredient missing from your company.
Our permanent search services will secure someone who fulfills your required skills, knowledge and leadership obligations, as well as getting to know candidates on a deeper level to ensure their values and motives are best suited to yours.
Sometimes an appointment may be so key that the successful applicant may be one of a tiny handful of candidates. In these scenarios, we keep a close eye on scarce candidate communities and maintain strong relationships with all candidates in our database, so we can ensure a highly targeted search from the beginning.

Our process
First, we take time to get to know your specific needs and circumstances to create a strategic recruitment plan that works for you. This includes forming an ideal position profile and designing a compatibility assessment that gives us a close representation of the right candidate. Thanks to our in-depth database encompassing some of the best experts from around the world, we’re already on track for finding your next great market-leader. Our expansive knowledge on the dynamics and nuances within the life sciences and healthcare industries helps us to inform your hiring goals, revisiting your recruitment plan if needed along the way.
Every candidate we put forward undergoes a detailed qualification assessment, which takes not just the requisite qualifications, but also your needs and position profile into account. We take time to get to know our candidates on a deeper level, identifying what inspires and motivates them to ensure their values and goals align with yours. We assess each candidate and give them a compatibility score to determine their suitability for your company.
As well as identifying and qualifying candidates, we also lend support at every stage of the recruitment process, including interview debriefings and assisting with offers and counteroffers.
Once an offer has been accepted and a successful appointment complete, we’ll catch up with you to ensure you’re satisfied with the outcome. Not only does this allow us to tie up any loose ends, it also enables us to evaluate and further improve our process.
