Executive Search: Case Study

AKG Case Study

Xpertise Search is trusted to deliver leadership-critical search assignments in Data, Technology and Transformation, roles where the cost of a mis-hire is high and long-term impact matters.

We specialise exclusively in senior and executive-level appointments, supporting organisations through complex leadership hires that demand deep market knowledge, rigorous assessment and absolute discretion. Our experience spans CIO, CTO, CDO and Transformation leadership roles across regulated, high-growth and operationally complex environments.

What differentiates Xpertise is the way we work. Every assignment is led personally by a senior partner, acting as a true extension of the client’s leadership team. We take the time to understand strategic priorities, organisational context and cultural dynamics, enabling us to assess leaders on their ability to deliver sustained impact, not just meet a role specification.

Our results are underpinned by an established leadership network built through long-term relationships, executive events and direct, in-depth assessment. This gives our clients access to high-calibre leaders who are rarely visible through traditional search processes.

We align our success with yours through a risk-sharing commercial model, with final fees linked to successful post-hire outcomes. This accountability is reflected in our track record: 100% of leadership-level candidates placed by Xpertise Search in the past seven years have remained in role beyond 12 months, with many progressing into broader leadership mandates.
