Where Growth Meets Its Leaders

Every growth story needs the right protagonists. At SpenglerFox, we help organisations identify leaders who don’t just fit the role but fuel the mission – whether you’re scaling into new markets, restructuring for performance, or navigating post-investment growth.

What we do
The SpenglerFox Difference

Ensuring You Have the Right Team to Grow

Exceptional Growth Requires Exceptional Leadership

We partner with growth companies, from ambitious scale-ups to PE-backed transformations, to solve their most critical leadership challenges. We not only connect them with leaders who drive strategic change, but help them see beyond today to identify leadership gaps, prepare high-potential talent for what’s next, and enabling teams to work together effectively during high-stakes transformation.

We are Specialists with Global Reach and a Local Touch

Our expertise in the industrial, consumer, life sciences and private equity verticals, as well as our global reach covering 370+ consultants across 46 countries, ensure we can source the talent that matches your ambition, whether you’re expanding geographically, scaling post-investment, or navigating critical succession moments.

On-Demand Leaders for Critical Moments

When growth can’t wait, we deliver experienced interim executives who can step in immediately to lead transformation, fill urgent gaps, or accelerate time-sensitive initiatives. Interim doesn’t mean temporary, it means targeted. We provide senior professionals with the expertise to stabilise, transform, or scale your business when timing is critical.

We are Independent

We are completely independent and wholly owned, allowing us to be totally agile. Our clients experience the same degree of service excellence regardless of their location. Our consultants are highly mobile and technologically enabled.

The SpenglerFox Methodology

Satisfaction of achieving the seemingly impossible

Every assignment we deliver follows a disciplined 21 step framework – the result of years of refinement across global executive search mandates. It ensures precision, consistency, and transparency from initial briefing through to successful onboarding.

Each stage is designed to create clarity, momentum, and measurable progress, transforming complex leadership searches into high impact,  successful outcomes for our clients, while ensuring a seamless experience for every candidate and complete transparency throughout the process.

Phase I: Discovery & Alignment

What This Means for You: Before we reach out to a single candidate, you gain absolute clarity on your brief, market positioning, and talent strategy.

We don’t rush to market. Instead, you’ll see us invest the time to truly understand what success looks like for you – the business context, the cultural nuances, the unspoken priorities that matter most. Your search strategy becomes evidence-based, not assumption-driven.

You’ll receive early market intelligence that shapes your thinking, validates your expectations, and positions you to compete for the best talent. By the time we present your longlist, you’ll already understand the competitive landscape and feel confident in the caliber of leaders we’re approaching.

Phase 2: Candidate Engagement & Insight

What This Means for You: You gain access to talent you didn’t know existed and competitive intelligence to make confident decisions.

While others rely on databases and LinkedIn, we map the actual market through organizational mapping, insider referrals, and intelligence networks that reveal who’s truly exceptional and not just who’s actively looking.

You’ll receive a complete talent landscape: who’s rising, who’s available, who you’re competing against, and why certain leaders are worth pursuing.

Every interaction is managed with discretion and pacing that protects your brand and respects candidates’ circumstances. You’ll feel informed, never blindsided, and your candidates will arrive prepared, engaged, and genuinely excited.

Phase 3: Closure & Partnership

What This Means for You: You secure your chosen leader seamlessly and protect the investment you’ve made in the process.

The moment between offer and start date is where many searches unravel. We stay personally engaged with you and your new hire through resignation, notice period, and onboarding anticipating obstacles, managing anxieties, and safeguarding your success.

Your employer brand remains intact throughout. Every candidate who engaged with your opportunity receives professional closure, regardless of outcome. You’ll also gain access to additional market insights and adjacent talent uncovered during the search, extending the value of your investment beyond the immediate hire.

This isn’t just a handoff. It’s a partnership that ensures your new leader arrives ready to succeed, your reputation is enhanced, and you have ongoing access to market intelligence for future needs.

Our Candidates

At SpenglerFox, we believe growth is a shared journey. We connect ambitious leaders with businesses that are scaling, transforming, and shaping the future, giving you the chance to make a tangible impact and grow alongside them.
