How I run a search.

A real senior search, run end to end and shown in full: Head of Applied AI, EMEA for a frontier AI company. The brief, the market, the method, seventy assessed leaders, and the approach that would go to the person at the top of the list.

Why there are no names This was a real mandate and the assessment is exactly as it was produced. The scores, the tiering and the reasoning are unaltered. What has been removed is everyone's identity: candidates appear as coded labels, employers as market descriptors, locations as regions, and every profile link has been stripped. The client is not named. Your search would be handled the same way.
01

The brief and the market

What the role demanded, and where that talent actually sits.

02

The method

How a whole market becomes a ranked shortlist.

03

The people

Seventy leaders, assessed, tiered and read honestly.

04

The approach

Analysis is not a hire.

That is the method. The next one would be yours.

This search was run to demonstrate a way of working: AI-native through the research and the long-listing, human through the evaluation and the approach. If you have a senior seat to fill, that is the conversation.
