C-Suite Search for Energy, Industrial & Infrastructure Businesses
BLACKLINE SEARCH
We place CEOs, CFOs, COOs, CTOs and CCOs into mid-market businesses at the moments that define them: growth, transition, succession, and capital events.
WHAT I DO
We specialise in C-suite search across energy, industrial and infrastructure; sectors where operational credibility matters as much as commercial track record, and where the wrong hire at the top sets a business back by years.We work with founders, boards, and investors who need a search partner that understands their sector, not just their job spec. That means knowing who the best operators are before a mandate lands, understanding what a business at your stage actually needs in a leadership team, and being direct about fit, even when that's a harder conversation.

HOW WE WORK
Specialism over volume
We work a tight number of mandates at any one time. Every search gets full attention, not a researcher and a junior brief.Relationships before mandates
The best appointments happen because we already know the market. We map talent continuously, not reactively, so when a mandate lands the shortlist isn't built from scratch.Direct, not diplomatic
We tell you when a candidate isn't right, when a brief needs rethinking, and when the market won't deliver what you're expecting. That directness is the job.
