We work exclusively at the senior end of the market — C-Suite roles (CEO, COO, CFO, CTO), board and Non-Executive Director positions, General Manager roles, Directors, Vice Presidents, and Divisional Leaders. Our sector focus spans Property & Real Estate, Construction & Infrastructure, Financial Services, Technology & Digital, and Professional Services. No junior roles,  no generalist briefs — just senior leadership, done properly

The differences are real and they matter. We work exclusively at the senior end of the market, which means our focus and our networks are genuinely deep — not spread thin across every level of hire. Our search process assesses vision, values, and cultural alignment alongside technical capability. We embed diversity and inclusion into every mandate from day one. We maintain long-term relationships with both clients and candidates rather than treating placements as transactions. And as accredited professionals and RCSA members, we hold ourselves to a 

standard that most generalist agencies simply don't.

Absolutely. We have dedicated offices in Sydney CBD and Perth CBD, but we run searches across Australia and internationally. Our global candidate network means we can source exceptional senior talent wherever it exists — whether you're an Australian organisation with global ambitions or an international business looking to hire into the Australian market.

Yes — completely free. Confidential career conversations, executive salary benchmarking, access to unadvertised roles, full interview preparation and support — all of it is complimentary. PARTNER Executive is engaged and paid by the hiring organisation, never the candidate. You get genuine investment in your career with no strings attached

It's not a separate workstream for us — it's woven into how we run every search. We actively surface candidates from diverse backgrounds, we challenge conventional hiring assumptions when we see them, and we work with clients to build leadership teams that genuinely reflect a broad range of perspectives. This isn't an add-on to the PARTNER promise. It is the PARTNER promise.

It depends on the complexity of the role, the seniority of the appointment, and what the market looks like at the time. A typical engagement runs between 6 and 12 weeks from briefing to shortlist presentation. We always prioritise quality over speed — our curated shortlists of 3–5 high-calibre candidates save clients significant time compared to running an unmanaged search process themselves.
