Eden Search & Select – the specialist international executive search consultancy for the agribusiness, fresh produce and food and drink industries – is responding to its clients increasing demand for senior talent by focusing on headhunting senior management and board level candidates.
After six years in business, the Eden team is now receiving a far greater number of senior-focused executive search briefs across all disciplines from Chief Executive Officers to Commercial, Operations and Technical Directors. Increasingly, the business is also operating internationally with more than 15% of its projects now involving a search for high-ranking candidates for roles overseas. To reflect the increasingly complex, bespoke and confidential nature of its work, Eden Search & Select has rebranded and is launching a new website.
David Macaulay, Managing Director at Eden Search & Select, said: “There remains a perception across agribusiness and the fresh produce, and food and drink sector, that you need to work with a London-based, traditional headhunting agency to find the right C-suite candidate – but that’s really not the case. Over the years we’ve developed solid partnerships with many of the UK’s leading food and agribusiness companies, helping them build and develop their executive teams to deliver sustained, profitable growth.”
“Our bespoke, client-centric approach is disrupting the market. Progressive companies recognise the challenge of discovering and developing successful leadership teams in a highly volatile sector where succession planning and internal talent gaps are often overlooked. In the last 18 months we have signed two long-term partnership agreements with international brands to support their organizational development – proof that our approach works.”
Eden Search & Select works with some of the most successful brands in its specialist sectors including Innocent Drinks, Carrs PLC, Agrovista, Produce Investments PLC and Barfoots of Botley to name a few. The company now employs nine people from its offices in Leeds.
