Client quotes
"The project management was exceptional throughout. Once we’d recruited the senior leadership team, the rest of the process ran smoothly because of the level of trust and understanding we’d already established. I genuinely believe partnering with one search firm and having them manage the whole project has helped us achieve this and it is an aspect of the search process which has exceeded my expectations." - Richard Baragwanath - Managing Director GB&I, Capri Sun UK Limited
"We had an urgent requirement for a Sales Director. The ideal candidate needed significant experience within the alcoholic drinks industry and proven success in winning new customers. Nigel Wright was accommodating right from the start. Nothing was considered impossible, and they were very keen and eager to take on the challenge. One week after starting the process, they had presented a shortlist of strong candidates for the role. We’re delighted with the appointment we’ve made. Engaging Nigel Wright for this appointment has been one of the best decisions I’ve made." - Grace Ubawuchi, CEO & Founder at Xīn and Voltaire
"We selected Nigel Wright to lead this critical Global Sales Director search assignment based on its drinks industry expertise and extensive consumer sector networks. They took the time to get to know our business and used this insight to deliver a successful process. They kept us informed of developments, provided weekly update reports and managed our expectations in an open and transparent way. The final shortlist included two strong but very different candidates. This was the ideal outcome as it challenged us to think about what we really wanted. We’re delighted with the result and will happily use Nigel Wright again in the future." - John Keeling, Director at Silent Pool Distillers
"I provided Nigel Wright’s consultant with what I believed, was an impossible list of attributes. They included finding someone with experience of scaling up a distillery, who could operate effectively within our agile entrepreneurial culture. My expectation was that we’d attract candidates with some, but not all these traits. The successful candidate is the perfect fit for 58 Gin, and I expect will be a real asset to our business. I’m delighted with the result and look forward to working with Nigel Wright again in the future." - Carmen Dunphy, Managing Director at 58 Gin
