Finding the best global talent to help you build and grow your business
Warren Partners is a leading purpose driven, employee-owned search firm, devoted to building and supporting diverse boards and executive leadership teams across the UK and internationally.
We can help you
Finding the right person for a senior role is a painstaking and sometimes lengthy process, taking up to 71 days according to one study of C-Suite hires. Let us give you that time back to focus on your business while we research and select the best candidates.
Searching for a truly diverse selection of candidates can be challenging. We use our specialist expertise to look beyond traditional networks and help build boards and leadership teams that can deliver positive change.
For executive and non-executive search, trust, transparency and operating to the highest ethical standards bring the optimum outcome. That’s why over 400 companies in the last five years have worked with Warren Partners for their senior hires.
Our Services
-
Chair & Non-Executive Director Search
Boards are under intense scrutiny and face complex demands from shareholders and wider stakeholders. Increasing diversity and making a positive difference is often at the heart of this challenge. Our extensive experience in building diverse boards and leadership teams – matching the right chairs and non-executive directors with the right boards – means we can help clients embed gender and broader diversity into their business swiftly and appropriately.
-
Executive Search
Our approach to executive search combines depth and reach – across sectors, functions, UK regions, countries and organisation types – with rigorous process, to build diverse executive and leadership teams. Core to our purpose is doing this diligently, ethically, challenging appropriately and making a difference. And enjoying the journey, of course, because finding out more about talented people should always be a fascinating, enriching experience.
-
Interim Management
A growth area for Warren Partners, our interim work has developed from a complementary offer to existing clients to an emerging service with increasing demand. Clients know that we invest in understanding the precise needs of each interim placement to manage risk, match talent and assure impact.

Leadership Coaching & Advisory
Our partnership with clients extends beyond the search for talent. We provide a range of flexible and bespoke leadership consulting services to help our clients unlock potential in people and organisations, cultivate diverse talent and leaders, and manage talent risk.
Our Sectors
We have deep market expertise and networks across a variety of business sectors.
-
Infrastructure, Industrial & Manufacturing
Within this practice area more than any other, our reach is broad and so our relationships matter. Our clients are spread across a wide range of business segments and regions. We work with large FTSE and AIM listed corporates, private and family-owned businesses and private equity backed portfolio companies. Increasingly, we also work with private equity firms and infrastructure funds directly.
-
Technology & Digital
We help our clients address some of this sector’s biggest challenges, such as moving to commercialisation, accelerating growth, preparing to list or, for established businesses, retaining competitive advantage against disruptive new entrants. From challenger brands to established players looking to ramp up their digital transformation, our team helps to position them for success.
-
Consumer, Retail & Media
We have an enviable track record with leading UK and international clients across this sector. Clients include FTSE, AIM and internationally listed players, as well as mid-sized privately held and private equity backed companies.

Financial Services
Our work across this sector is one of the foundations of Warren Partners and we’re recognised as a leading player in the UK senior executive and board search and advisory market. We partner with many UK and international financial institutions, including established FTSE 250 players, financial mutual organisations and other purpose-driven banking and financial organisations. There’s also an inspiring range of technology-driven, agile, and innovative new entrants, many of which are reshaping the sector, who engage our services.

B2B & Professional Services
Agility is the watchword across these sectors, with clients facing unrelenting customer demand for new, more, faster and better. Market share is challenged as providers encroach into different areas and start-ups offer new solutions.
