About Us

TRUSTED PARTNERS IN EXECUTIVE SEARCH.

At FR Executive, we’re trusted advisors committed to understanding your business inside and out to provide bespoke solutions. With industry-specific expertise, a vast network and a rigorous search process, we will help you attract inspirational talent, who can lead with impact and drive growth. Our team knows the UK market and the industries we serve, bringing you a refined, data-backed approach to finding leaders who don’t just fit, but truly transform.

OUR APPROACH.

Our Executive Search process is designed around one principle: finding the best leader for your unique needs. From the start, we work closely with you to define the exact qualities, skills, and cultural fit needed. Here’s how we do it:

01
Discovery and Alignment
We don’t believe in filling seats. We understand that each assignment is unique so we start by immersing ourselves in your world - your strategy, culture, leadership style, parameters for success, aspirations and associated challenges and then we can provide an agreeable plan of action with timescales.
02
Market Mapping, Intelligence & Research Team
We take a research-led approach to every brief. Our team maps the full talent landscape using our networks, data tools and sector knowledge which is less about finding who is available and more about who is right. Our insight goes beyond the obvious and into previous track record, influence, evidence of results and potential to ensure only the most relevant, high-impact individuals make it onto your radar.
03
Engagement & Assessment
Once we’ve identified the right people, we bring your story to life. We engage candidates with a clear, honest message about the role, the business and the opportunity ahead. Every conversation is designed to test capability, motivation and fit so by the time you meet them, you’re seeing leaders who genuinely align with your vision and values.
04
Onboarding & Ongoing Support
Our service continues through the offer stage, notice period and onboarding to support new leaders in settling in, building momentum, and making a difference fast. From introductions to key stakeholders to early check-ins, we stay alongside you to ensure a smooth transition and long-term impact.

Here’s why clients trust FR Executive to find their next leader:
