Shaping Futures: Building Executive Leadership Teams

Futures is the Executive Search brand within Alex Partners, collaborating with our clients to hire their executive and leadership teams.

In Futures, we are immersed in the European technology ecosystem.  We believe that successful Global companies are created by hiring inspirational leaders with an international mindset, early on in their journey.

We have a strong track record of achieving this, turning local European technology businesses into global players.

We shape our client’s leadership teams by hiring exceptional leaders across Sales, Marketing, Product, Finance and People. These hires are instrumental in driving and enabling their future growth.

Our ‘borderless approach’ enables us to leverage talent for global impact. We do this by attracting and securing the top local and international talent for our clients.

Challenging traditional ‘search’ models, we’ve shaped our process to better reflect the aggressive growth aspirations of our partners.

By building strong partnerships with Founders, Investors, CEOs and HR leaders we create value partnerships with our clients so we can support them on this journey.

Nina placed me in a transformation COO role and also found numerous senior leaders for me. In my opinion, she is the best in the business and has been extremely important to our talent acquisition, undoubtedly strengthening the company’s leadership capability.

Chris, COO, Europe

If you are looking for individuals that can help facilitate growth, help you to innovate and compete more favourably in the market, you have to work with an organisation that is in tune with that need. Alex Partners have delivered that.
