What we do
Five ways to
work with us.
No matter where you are in your growth journey, we can find a solution that works for you, for leadership appointments and for the technology teams beneath them.
Where we stand out
Two ways of working most firms don't offer.
Alongside retained and contingent search, we deliver outcomes and build teams from the inside.
Statement of Work consulting
We scope the work, agree the deliverables and provide the specialists to deliver them, on a fixed scope and timeline. One accountable partner, paid for outcomes rather than hours.
How it works → IIEmbedded recruitment
Our people inside your team, running hiring end-to-end under your brand. Built for scale-ups, platforms and programmes hiring at volume or into roles the market has never seen.
How it works →Statement of Work consultingWhere we stand out
Defined outcomes, delivered by specialists. We scope the work with you, agree the deliverables and milestones, and provide the consultants to deliver them on a fixed scope and timeline. You pay for outcomes rather than hours, with one accountable partner managing the delivery.
For Reporting cycles, transformation and decarbonisation programmes, platform builds and market entry.
Embedded recruitmentWhere we stand out
We integrate directly into your team to run the full hiring process end-to-end, boosting efficiency, improving candidate quality and supporting long-term growth, whether you're scaling fast or hiring for a hard-to-fill niche role.
For Scale-ups and platforms hiring in volume, or for roles the market has never seen before.
Retained search
We find senior leaders who can navigate regulatory complexity and deliver commercial results, not just talk the mission. A mapped market, a dedicated search and deep sector knowledge mean we reach the people who aren't actively looking.
For Board, C-suite and senior leadership appointments where the wrong hire is expensive.
Contingent recruitment
Specialist hiring on a success-fee basis. Our network across energy transition, climate, clean technology, data & AI and engineering means every shortlist is built around your goals, not a generic candidate pool.
For Specialist and senior hires that need to move at pace without lowering the bar.
Contract & interim
Senior expertise without the full-time commitment. Our contract and interim placements support organisations through strategic planning, market entry and periods of rapid change.
For Transformation, reporting deadlines and gaps between permanent leaders.
How a search runs
Six steps. No shortcuts.
Every retained search follows the same discipline. The pace changes with the brief. The rigour does not.
Brief
We spend time understanding the role, the organisation and what success looks like in year two, not week two.
Map
We map the market: who holds comparable roles, who is one step away, who is being under-used where they are.
Approach
Direct, specific, discreet. Most of the people we place were not looking when we called.
Assess
Structured conversations against the brief, with candour about fit, motivation and risk on both sides.
Appoint
We manage offer, references and the detail that makes an acceptance stick.
Beyond
We stay close through the first year. A placement is a relationship, not a transaction.
Advisory & consulting
Partner with Sustii beyond the search.
We offer strategic consulting services to streamline recruitment processes and enhance their efficiency and effectiveness. This includes evaluating current recruitment methods, identifying bottlenecks and implementing best practices.
Additionally, we can recommend trusted training platforms for your teams, develop a more compelling employer brand and ensure that the recruitment process aligns with the company's overall strategic goals. By refining these processes, companies can attract higher-quality candidates, reduce time-to-hire and ultimately achieve better organisational outcomes.
