Leadership & Executive Search.
Connecting organisations with the leaders who move them forward.
At Consult, we’ve spent years building trusted, long standing networks with New Zealand’s top organisations and executive talent – and we know how to engage them.
Because of our proven track record and specialist recruitment teams, we’re regularly trusted with the recruitment of CEOs, GMs, Directors, and functional heads through to C-suite executives and board appointments.
Finding the best leaders to grow your business.
Executive search & strategic leadership services.
The best leaders are usually too engaged in what they’re doing to be actively looking for what’s next. That’s exactly where traditional executive search falls short. It’s designed to find candidates in motion, not leaders already deep in the work of transforming their organisations.
We take a different approach. Our specialist recruitment teams have spent years building genuine networks – so when it’s time to find a leader for succession planning, business growth, or major change, we already know who to call. Our recruitment consultants has extensive experience partnering with organisations across all sectors to appoint senior leaders. We understand what makes great leadership, and we know how to find the best leaders to grow your business.
Interim & Fractional leadership.
For organisations that are scaling, transforming or navigating change and need access to leadership capability without the full-time appointment, we help you access high-impact leaders or specialists who can step in quickly, bring deep expertise and deliver meaningful results without the commitment of a full-time hire.
Delivering business transformation.
Large-scale change needs the right leadership. If you’re delivering a business transformation, enterprise-wide change, or critical programme of work, we can connect you with proven transformation leaders who have led complex projects from strategy through to delivery.
Our Enterprise & Transformation services provide specialised delivery talent from PMO leaders and change managers to organisational design experts to ensure your transformation stays on track, on budget, and delivers lasting impact.
