We work with buy-side and sell-side clients on talent advisory initiatives including succession planning and organisational design and development. The foundation of our business is leadership appointments including Chief Risk Officers, Chief Compliance Officers, Chief Internal Audit Officers and other senior functional leaders.
The Sheffield Haworth approach to search is that the work is led and delivered by our team of Senior Managing Directors who bring decades of industry experience - we are hands-on in the delivery of services to our clients rather than relying on our team members to execute. As a result our consultants stay close to the market through ongoing relationships with senior leaders - both candidates and clients. We take a data-driven approach, continuously mapping the market, giving us proprietary insights into talent trends, leadership requirements, and the changing regulatory landscape.
Inclusive leadership teams bring broader perspective, stronger judgement, more effective challenges and better outcomes. We comprehensively map talent in every search and work with clients to build leadership teams that reflect the breadth of the market. We support this through a number of initiatives, particularly at our Female CRO & CCO forums where the most senior industry leaders in New York and London regularly meet for confidential discussions on the issues shaping the sector.
Our differentiation is our functional specialisation, industry-leading market intelligence, global reach, and long-standing market relationships. We combine deep sector knowledge with access to senior talent across the buy side and sell side, helping clients hire leaders who can operate with credibility in complex, regulated environments. Every mandate is led and delivered by our team of Senior Managing Directors, who bring decades of industry experience - we are hands-on in the delivery of services to our clients rather than relying on our team members to execute.
