Operating as one global team, we partner with ambitious business to build executive teams.
Taking a global approach to all searches, our methodology is based on deep market expertise, human relationships and business outcomes. With offices in London, Melbourne and Sydney, we have strong geographically-diverse networks and always look to source the best candidates, wherever they might be.
Our approach combines a deep understanding of your business with market insight to build a clear picture of the role and responsibilities. We believe in spending time to immerse ourselves in your business in order to identify, attract, assess and close the right candidates for you.
We bring a track record of executing assignments globally in Europe, North America and Asia Pacific, enabling international companies to expand into new territories and local companies to grow by making key executive hires.
Our executive search expertise is wide ranging and we place board, C-Level and highly specialised leadership roles into businesses at their most critical stages of growth or transformation.
At Think & Grow we believe that a strong, diverse, independent and experienced board is critical to the success of a business.
Through our board advisory, board assessment and director recruitment services, we help fast growth tech businesses evolve through different phases of growth.
We are passionate about building balanced, diverse boards with relevant operational and leadership experience complemented with skills and broad thinking. We believe boards act as a built-in mechanism for mentorship, whilst providing the governance and strategy oversight that high-risk, fast-growth companies need as they scale.
We combine our own market insight with thorough assessment to help build a clear understanding of our clients’ needs and thereby maximise their organisational effectiveness.
Board advisory
We run a workshop with the board of directors and founders to review skillsets and strategy in order to produce a blueprint of board composition. Gaining a deeper understanding of business strategy and individual’s skillsets, as well as alignment across the board, allows us to make recommendations on gaps and board composition/hires needed to take you through the next 24 months of growth.
Board selection
Based on an understanding of specific requirements, we are able to execute a global search and assessment. Given our global track record and network, we leverage our existing network of tens of thousands of candidates to ensure you meet the very best candidate for the role.
We provide customers with an independent assessment that will help to optimise their organisation around people by aligning growth strategies with talent roadmaps, current skills and budgets.
