Some hiring situations don't have a straightforward brief.
A role that can't go public yet. A senior search where confidentiality isn't optional. A replacement hire where timing and discretion are everything. These aren't rare cases, they come up more often than most businesses plan for.
When they do, the approach has to be different.
Talent mapping rather than open advertising.
Targeted headhunting with a tightly controlled candidate journey.
A process where confidentiality is built in at every stage, not treated as an afterthought.
It's one of the things we do when we work exclusively with a client, and it's one where our experience, judgement and trusted networks make all the difference.
