Our Customer Feedback…..
Paul from Wright Executive Recruitment was absolutely brilliant to work with! He's professional, honest and communicates promptly to deliver on any updates. Normally I would say most Executive Recruitment consultants are pretty poor at providing prompt communication to candidates but Paul was definitely always on the ball in getting things done. Thanks Paul for all your help!
Wright Executive Recruitment and its experienced "Chief HeadHunter" Paul Simms always delivers high performing, quality accounting candidates. Highly recommended!
Our company needed to find a new Finance and Accounting Manager. As the role is key in the organisation, it was important to us to find a candidate that was ‘just right.’ I have used executive recruitment firms in the past with results that were sort-of-hit and mostly-miss with the occasional disaster. Because we needed to move quickly, with some trepidation I decided to approach Wright Executive Recruitment.
I am so glad that I did! From scheduling the first consultation to rendering the final invoice, everything was handled with the utmost of professionalism.
Communication was terrific, presentation was flawless, and most importantly, the candidates were all superb. I was put in the position of having to make a difficult choice between the candidates presented, which is exactly what I wanted to happen. This is the first executive recruitment experience that I can say I was 100% satisfied with and I know who I’ll be talking to for key positions in the future.
Thank you to Paul and Wright Executive Recruitment team for setting the bar so high!
Paul Simms of Wright Executive Recruitment has recently been engaged by Doka East Asia Pacific to help us recruiting a Head of Finance & Controlling for our Australian operations. We approached Wright Executive Recruitment directly initially, and have found the service to be nothing short of excellent.
Paul came out to meet with our local MD and regional HR, took the time to deeply understand this pivotal role, our hiring needs and the business as a whole, along with the cultural and personal aspects of the position, he then conducted a thorough market executive search and presented a strong shortlist of highly appropriate candidates which fell very much within our brief.
Although, due to complications we couldn’t find the right match in the first round, Paul and his team went the extra mile, presented a new shortlist containing two extremely relevant executives forward. We ultimately appointed a superb Head of Finance.
I would certainly be happy to recommend Paul and Wright Executive Recruitment to any corporate business looking to hire members of their senior leadership team on an Executive Search basis."

What Client Companies to you represent?
We often feel that hiring companies have the capability to recruit their own staff directly, we are only looking to help with those roles which require a specialist knowledge of the sector or specialisation. Our clients value our deep insight into our specialist sector (Accounting and Leadership), this gives us an edge when searching for and representing the most talented candidates across the market.
How does the Executive Search process work?
As a highly respected Executive Search Firm, we will arrange a time to meet with you in person. In the meeting we will go through a comprehensive job brief surrounding the role. Also we will take the time to get to know you and your company, why it would be a great environment for a candidate to join, and more importantly understand precisely the talent requirements that will match your needs.
Following the meeting we then get to work utilising every tool and process available to confidentially and discreetly reach in to the market, networking with potential suitors, building a long list and then ultimately a shortlist of suitable candidates to present to you.
It’s at this point the process is over to you, however we help you manage and deliver a robust interview process to determine which of the candidates are most appropriate to hire.
Once a decision is made, we complete background checks at your request, manage the offer process, paperwork and commencement date.
It doesn’t stop there, we are committed to ensuring that any placement is a successful one and that we have fulfilled your goals. Continued conversation will be maintained with you and your new employee, way beyond the date at which they join your team and become a valued member of staff.

What happens in the event of a problem hire?
That said, a failed placement goes against everything we at Wright Executive strive for. We pride ourselves on our ability to deliver only the best talent for our clients, and placements that remain for many years. We follow a rigorous search process to ensure that this risk is minimised, which rarely fails.
But, we are human after all we are helping you with human capital… people do change their mind, or get cold feet, and on that rare occasion, you have our word that we will honour our commitments.
So how do we get started with a Search?
