‘This is no-frills air travel for

executive search; they get you from a to b on time, in comfort, safely. If you

want the extras, you pay for them. If you don’t, you don’t have to. If you

really want to pay through the nose because your ego needs a boost, go to

the old search firms.’

ExecutiveSurf has few off limits agreements with global accounts that may reduce its effectiveness as a supplier for other clients. ExecutiveSurf complies with the highest standards from the executive search industry in terms of confidentiality, privacy and CRM. Its powerful technological platform minimises the use of emails and other forms of uncontrolled means of delivery. In addition to that, as stakeholders in the talent market, the firm believes all its partners should be treated equally, be they companies, executives, interim managers, or any combination of the above. ExecutiveSurf is uncompromisingly internationalist. Rod Bailey, CEO, speaks four languages fluently and has lived and worked internationally for over two decades. ExecutiveSurf currently employs over 20 nationalities with linguistic capability to carry out world wide researches. The ExecutiveSurf culture embraces cultural differences: our multi-lingual research staff is based in the global delivery Hub in London where all the process take form, reducing the delivery time of each assignment.

Placements

Cancelled Searches

We divide our fee in three instalments: retainer fee, shortlist fee, placement fee. We have a different price depending on the scope of the search. Single country search or multi-country search require different approaches from our mother tongue recruiters who are on the project. Global agreements are linked to volume and forecast discounts are calculated at the end of the period. Additional modules, such as the pre-employment screening with a thorough background check, are quoted separately. We have an organizational model split between origination and delivery: •  from the global delivery hub in London, senior consultants work on a country basis originating engagements and

are responsible for search strategy and project set up; they also supervise the assignment and deliver add-on modules when requested (e.g. candidate assessment);

•  research associates are responsible for project execution and candidate relationships. Once again, processes are centralised, leaving the relationship with the client to the most effective consultant for each assignment, regardless of their origin.
