Welcome to our world…

Executive Resources International is a global network of
independent Executive Search and Leadership Advisory firms

Global Talent Hunters for ambitious businesses

International business moves and changes quickly. Multi-national organisations need to respond to markets with speed and with confidence, or opportunities are lost .

When you need to hire executives and specialist skills in other countries – or when you are looking to set up a business in a new market – you need to partner with an organisation that can offer you support at home plus access to local market knowledge, cultural expertise, and outstanding reach and resources to identify and attracting top talent abroad.

For more than 30 years, Executive Resources International (ERI) has offered just that as a trusted partner to thousands of clients seeking to grow or establish their operations overseas.

Why do global organisations use ERI?

ERI’s clients understand that there are a multitude of benefits in using a network of affiliated global recruitment firms for international and cross-border assignments, as opposed to a more traditional “global” search firm.

ERI’s member firms have long-standing relationships with each other. Many of the current businesses in the alliance were founder firms of the network. The partner firms meet in person twice a year for a network conference. We discuss the challenges and opportunities in each country, thereby keeping our fingers on the pulse of latest industry, commercial, political and economic trends and development. The conferences also make sure we build on existing – and new – relationships as the network grows.

This trust, friendship, honest communication and co-operation amongst the partners and individual consultants is essential when working on complex and time-sensitive cross-border assignments.

Another advantage for clients of using a network like ERI is the culture of trust and collaboration that exists among our member firms. There is no competition over fees or turf wars over clients and territories. This allows for open and honest communication, which is essential when working on complex and time-sensitive projects.

If you are an employer looking for a network of recruitment firms, it is essential to look for a network that has a proven track record of success. This can be measured by the number of successful placements, the size and reputation of the firms within the network, and the length of time the network has been in operation.

ERI track record

ERI completes around 1500 searches a year and has been established for 30 years. We work with many global brands and organisations, as well as with smaller, ambitious businesses, seeking to recruit the best talent to deliver their international plans.

Our network can be used for a wide range of projects, including international executive search, cross-border recruitment, and global talent mapping. We have the experience and expertise to assist with a variety of industries and functions, including C-level and senior management positions, as well as specialized roles such as sales and marketing, finance, and human resources.

This network of affiliated independent recruitment firms provides a wealth of benefits for international and cross-border assignments. With a proven track record of success, a culture of trust and collaboration, and the ability to provide a comprehensive search, assessment and leadership advisory solution for any organization, the ERI network is well-positioned to assist with your next executive search project.
