How it runs. 1. Brief: we agree what the role really needs, which is not always what the position description says. 2. Research: I map the market and build the longlist, including people who have never updated LinkedIn. 3. Shortlist: four to five candidates, presented in person or by phone, within four to six weeks. 4. Interviews: I coordinate the lot, and run psychometrics and references where you want them. 5. Offer and onboarding: I manage the offer through to day one, and check in well after that.
Why Small Target? The best candidate for a role is usually the hardest to find. Finding them takes time, so I only take on a handful of searches at once. Each one gets all of me.
​Send me the role in a paragraph. I'll tell you straight away whether I'm the right person, and if I'm not, who is.
Interim, contract and consulting: need someone in the seat while the search runs, or a few months of Strategy, Supply Chain or Procurement muscle on a project? Ask me.
