Research-Led Executive Search: The Wyman Bain Approach
Redefining Executive Search
Traditional executive search methods often rely on databases and candidates who are actively seeking new roles. While this may suit some, it overlooks the vast majority of high-calibre executives—those who are successful, settled, and not actively on the market. At Wyman Bain, we take a different approach.
A Transparent, Auditable Process
Our research-led methodology is designed to give our clients complete confidence and visibility throughout the search. We don’t just claim to be thorough—we prove it, with a process that is open, transparent, and entirely auditable at every stage.
How It Works?
1. Briefing & Specification: We begin with an in-depth briefing to understand your organisation, culture, and the specific requirements of the role. This results in a detailed specification document, shared with you and used as the benchmark for our research.
2. Market Mapping: Our team identifies every relevant organisation within your chosen market. We analyse organisational structures to pinpoint the right individuals in comparable positions. This market map is shared with you for review, ensuring full transparency and allowing you to add or exclude targets as you see fit.
3. Proactive, Confidential Approaches: We make confidential approaches to every identified individual, engaging them without initially disclosing your company’s identity. This protects your confidentiality and ensures genuine interest—most people are open to a conversation when approached in the right way.
4. In-Depth Assessment: Promising candidates meet with our consultants for confidential, face-to-face discussions. These meetings, typically lasting 1.5 to 2 hours, assess experience, cultural fit, and motivations. Only at the end of this process do we reveal your identity (under NDA), ensuring candidates are both suitable and genuinely interested.
5. Shortlisting & Presentation: We present a curated shortlist of the best candidates—those who objectively and subjectively meet your brief and are enthusiastic about your opportunity. Each candidate is accompanied by detailed assessment notes and our rationale for recommendation.
6. End-to-End Management: We support you throughout the process, from initial interviews to offer, acceptance, and onboarding. Our team manages every detail, including counter-offer risks and candidate engagement through to their start date.
Securing the right people for your success
The Wyman Bain insight allows us to meticulously evaluate candidates’ suitability objectively and subjectively for your organisation. The blend of detailed market mapping, proactive attraction and full assessment enables us to secure the individuals who can help drive your business and fulfil your aims and objectives.
Headhunting is something we specialise in, and we always go the extra mile for our clients to ensure we find the perfect candidates | talent for their requirements. Over the years, we have travelled extensively to provide our executive search and headhunting service to businesses from our offices in Bristol and London.
