Our relationships with clients and candidates often span decades. We work intimately with our clients to bring them the best leadership talent and keep ahead of the ever-evolving financial services landscape. 85% of our work is repeat business. We serve large global financial firms, specialist firms and innovators.
Our extensive and actively engaged network of international financial services leaders sets us apart. Thanks to them, coupled with our approach, we are effective and efficient in solving client hires.
We build forensic talent maps and clear pictures of the best candidates in the market, not just who they are, but how they operate and how they would fit in our clients' cultures.
As a specialist private firm, we have the benefit of minimal off limits. We have the freedom to access the best candidates in the market, wherever they work and wherever they are in the world.
The Carbon model is designed to deliver. With decades of search experience, we know how to drive a high quality process and take the well-judged steps that make a difference.
We provide trusted and balanced counsel to ensure the best possible outcome for the client. We will evaluate and advise on internal talent, and support their professional development as part of the search process.
We only work on assignments we know we are best placed to support. We will advise on the best strategy for a client, even if that doesn’t mean Carbon.
Carbon collaborates with clients to drive diversity of thought and life experience across boards and executive committees. We advise clients on bespoke, thoughtful and intricate candidate engagement strategies to encourage diverse applicants to roles. We monitor diversity progress and feedback every step of the way.
We act without prejudice, and only hire people who are passionate about diversity and inclusion. We constantly seeks ways to educate ourselves and prevent bias.
We are a signatory to the Voluntary Code of Conduct for Executive Search Firms, part of the Hampton-Alexander Review. Carbon has consistently delivered gender diversity of 50% (moving average over last 20 assignments).
