Confidential Urgent Executive Search
Swift and discreet executive search services to find the right leaders for your organization.
Solving Your Confidential Vacancies Urgently
Are you feeling uncertain about your current board members but worried that your existing recruiter might leak sensitive information?
Changing leadership at the highest levels, like CEO, CFO, COO, or Plant Manager, while the current executive is still in place, is a delicate process that requires a unique approach beyond typical recruitment.
At CE Interim, confidentiality is ingrained in our DNA, thanks to our extensive experience in Interim Management and Crisis Management.
Most of our executive searches have been conducted discreetly within our existing Global Talent Pool, often initiated by parent companies abroad, private equity shareholders, or foreign investors, without the involvement of the local organization.
Over the past decade, we’ve built strong, confidential relationships with over 50,000 senior managers globally. We’re often among the first to know when these leaders are considering new opportunities.
This enables us to quickly and discreetly identify and approach the right candidates without public advertisements or traditional recruitment channels. For particularly sensitive executive search situations, we work closely with our extensive network of Advisory Board Members to ensure the best possible outcome.
