INDUSTRIES SERVED
We have chosen to focus on a few numbers of industries where we have a good business understanding and a strong network. We believe industry specialization is increasingly important in serving executive search clients and candidates well.
Professional Services Firms
Venture Capital and
Private Equity Portfolio Companies
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FIRMS
The strategic core of our business is work for professional services firms, supplying them with the best consultants. This could be Management Consulting, Corporate Finance, Advertising, PR, Law, and Investment Management. The work for these firms allows us to identify and get in contact with the smartest business talents around at a rather young age. We nurture and follow these talents as their careers develop.
These clients also have the ability to hire when they find the right talent, not just when they have an opening. This enables us to better help top candidates, who seek our advice, find good opportunities compared to other search firms that mostly work for more traditional companies that mainly are looking for "vacancy filling".
VENTURE CAPITAL & PRIVATE EQUITY PORTFOLIO COMPANIES
The investors also seek top analytical and strategic talent. In addition they double as indirect clients through their investment portfolio companies. That is why we work closely with these investors and get a good share of our business from them.
CONSUMER COMPANIES
In the industries focusing on consumer consumption you will find the best marketing, communications and sales people in the country. As our own industry experience stems from this sector, and these functional areas, it is very natural for us to work closely with clients in this area. Through assignments for the strongest brands and sector leaders we develop ourselves and our talent pool and can offer great solutions both to clients and candidates as well. When you have the privilege of working with professional and demanding clients like Orkla, Carlsberg and Coca-Cola, you grow better assignment by assignment, year by year.
FINACIAL SERVICES
This industry has become one of our strongest sectors, combining the demands of both our consumer clients and professional service clients. Hence, we have been able to acquire strong industry insight that helps us find great solutions and make clients come back with new assignments.
MEDIA & ENTERTAINMENT
This industry segment has become one of our strongest due to direct industry experience, consumer competence and telecom insight (as media and telecom converge). We have clients across all media platforms from print and TV to Internet and Mobile and assignments from corporate positions to sales force development.
IT & TELECOM
We work extensively with commercial positions in this segment. We possess a strong industry understanding and have a well developed network in this segment. When the client list includes Telenor, NetCom, Microsoft and Opera Software you know we have had the chance to work with the best and discuss opportunities with the most demanding candidates. Through our well developed understanding of challenges and opportunities, both for clients and candidates, we can find solutions that can go beyond the expectations of both parties.
