MAX PIERCE · PROFESSIONAL SEARCH

Professional Search. Engineered for Performance.

We help organisations appoint people who can deliver the outcomes that matter. Specialist search across Sales Leadership, Legal, HR and Procurement & Supply Chain.

SPECIALIST EXPERTISE

Four specialisms.
One performance-led approach.

Deep functional understanding, shaped around your business priorities.

OUR APPROACH

Start with the business.
Define the performance.
Find the person.

A successful appointment begins with clarity about what the business needs to achieve.

Our Pre-Hire Analysis creates a Performance Blueprint that connects your business context with specific outcomes for the role. Targeted Professional Search, structured assessment and forensic referencing then test the evidence behind each candidate’s experience.

We look beyond the appointment to the first 90 days and the outcomes required over 12 months.
