MANAGEMENT
Global Director of Search and Senior Advisor for Multilateral Agencies, International Development and Not-for-Profits
Flexible, modular support, tailored to what you need. From market mapping and candidate screening to assessments and reference checks, SRI plugs into any stage of your hiring process — so you can move forward with confidence and rigour.
Not every leadership hire needs an end-to-end search. Sometimes you just need expert support at a critical step — market insight, objective screening, panel facilitation, psychometrics or rigorous reference checks.
SRI gives you targeted, on-demand support at any step of your recruitment. Keep what works in-house; bring us in to fill the gaps — whether that’s a clear view of the market, objective assessments, or deeper candidate insight.
Trusted by 300+ organisations across 70+ countries, for nearly three decades, our search process supports you from initial enquiry to a successful placement.
We really enjoyed working with SRI for this recruitment and found the screening process very thorough and comprehensive. It was a complex, niche role to fill, and incredibly valuable having a recruiting team with this experience.
Our flexible Search Solutions include:
See the talent landscape before you search — who’s available, where to look, and how to reach beyond your usual networks.
Independent, structured reviews to highlight high-potential profiles and strengthen in-house processes.
Objective, consistent evaluation across interviews, exercises and role-relevant assessments.
Define criteria, prepare panel members and run fair, consistent interviews with expert facilitation.
Deeper insight into leadership style, cognitive strengths and team fit to inform final decisions.
Structured, discreet and insightful validation for senior appointments to mitigate risk.
Modular services let you engage us for specific steps only — such as assessments or references — while retaining your internal process. End-to-end search covers everything from brief to appointment.
