Launch Of New Executive Search Service

18th June 2021

Aberdeen-based TMM Recruitment has invested in the next phase of the company’s growth with the launch of its new executive search service, TMM Executive.

Led by financial recruitment specialist and current CEO, Amanda McCulloch, the service will focus on the appointment of board level finance and operations professionals and non-executive directors. 

It’s the aim of TMM Executive to make a real difference to high growth, private equity-backed and SME business owners.

Amanda explains: “COVID-19 has emphasised the importance of effective leadership during times of volatility, uncertainty or change. Recruiting the best executive talent for your business has never been more important yet many local businesses don’t know where to turn for help.

“It’s the aim of TMM Executive to make a real difference to high growth, private equity-backed and SME business owners throughout Scotland by providing an alternative option to the traditional executive search service which they feel is ill-suited to their needs.

“We’ve applied our resourcing expertise to senior manager and board level resourcing for over a decade, discretely building a track record of success and strengthened our capabilities with the appointment of investment and finance experts Jock Gardiner and John Duncan to our Board.

We are responding to demand from performance-driven companies for greater transparency of the executive search process.

“Our solid performance and resilience during the pandemic, in conjunction with our extensive professional network, provide the platform to pursue further expansion into the executive market and leadership recruitment. We are responding to demand from performance-driven companies for greater transparency of the executive search process, higher service levels, and much better communication. And from the senior executive’s perspective, we know they value our people-centred approach, understanding that career decisions are made with your head and your heart.

“Recognising that time can be of the essence and permanent placements are not always the right solution, we’ve established a community of interim finance and operations leaders who work on a short term, contract or project basis and we’ve built relationships with coaches we trust and recommend for leadership and personal development.

“Choosing our high potential psychometric assessment is enabling employers who are striving to reduce bias, gain insights on role fit and team performance as well as make hiring decisions based on knowledge and data insights. Completing our comprehensive executive service employers can also access our regional expertise in market mapping and total remuneration benchmarking.”
