Management Search, Management Recruiters and Headhunters
In addition to our Executive Search capabilities, we also offer Management Search and Headhunting. At Novo, we are uniquely positioned to help identify and attract professionals at the middle to upper levels of management, in both single-search and multiple managed search projects.
Our innovative management search process offers unrivalled access to active and passive candidate pools, the industry’s richest data on salaries and employee engagement, and proprietary tools. A wealth of assessment data defines the traits needed for success in each role we recruit. Matching professional search candidates against best-in-class profiles while also gauging cultural fit.
Whether professional needs revolve around a new product launch, organizational change, strategic shift, or geographic expansion, our innovative approach lets organizations maximize resources, confidently develop strategy, and and put the right management talent in place to drive businesses forward.
This retained service allows our clients in all sectors to use our proactive, research-led headhunting techniques to effectively address positions in midlevel salary ranges which are usually outside the scope of traditional management search.
Our clients have repeatedly told us that vacancies at this level are among the most challenging to resource in a cost-effective way. Novo addresses this by providing the depth and thoroughness of search at costs more closely aligned with those offered by contingency recruitment agencies.
Novo works by streamlining the traditional headhunting process for management roles, enabling companies to save time and costs while losing none of the market penetration and candidate quality associated with executive search.

“During the first half of 2021 Novo worked with the Central Bedfordshire Council on 3 retained search assignments; the recruitment of a Non-Executive Chair to oversee the Board of a start-up housing development company, and a start up care homes and services business, as well as suitably experienced Executive Directors for both of these new organisations. All 3 roles were filled.’

Client Testimonials
“This is the fifth senior manager recruitment undertaken by Novo on behalf of EPRL in a relatively short space of time as we expand our management capabilities. Each time the process has been smooth and in each case the eventual successful candidate has hit the ground running and made a positive impact on the business. The European Project Manager role was a difficult one to fulfil but again Novo’s skill and process have helped to find the right candidate.”
