Meet the team

Introducing our exceptionally experienced Executive Search experts.

Our Executive Search specialists


Remarkable stability and staff longevity are everywhere at Harris Hill, but nowhere more so than in Executive Search.


Each of our specialists has been placing charity CEOs and board members for well over a decade with us alone, with hundreds of successful appointments to their name. It adds up to a wealth of charity executive search expertise that's unrivalled in the sector.


What does it mean for you?


The long-term commitment of our team doesn't just give us an extensive record:


  • It means consistency and continuity in our service and aftercare.


  • It means we can build connections that last, giving us access to countless talented professionals we’ve placed in the past who are now experienced leaders.


  • It means that the knowledge and insight we gain from every search stays with us, deepening our understanding all the time.


  • And it means that even if it’s been years between hiring requirements, you'll likely have the same contact and won't need to start from scratch, helping you reach a successful outcome sooner.


It also suggests that we might just know a thing or two about recruitment and retention, so between your organisational knowledge and our executive recruitment expertise, you can be confident that your search is in the safest possible hands.
