Testimonials

“Macaulay is a trusted partner in our work. You own identifying the correct candidate as much as I do. And you care as much as I do.”

Michael O’Neill, Former CEO, Stewardship

 “Macaulay has successfully helped us recruit executive directors and trustees to my three most recent organisations.  They excel at all the P’s:  partnership, professionalism, prayer, persistence and perspicacity!  I very much appreciate their wisdom, emotional intelligence and reach and have been very pleased with the people they’ve found.”

Henrietta Blyth, CEO, Open Doors

“Macaulay’s relational and bespoke approach was just what we needed in appointing our inaugural Executive Director – they took time to understand our needs, made the process simple and found us an outstanding group of candidates that only extended our ambitions – the challenge was in the choosing.”

Tom Clements, Chair, Trillion Trees

“Having not worked with Macaulay Search before, I was really pleased with the quality of service they provided to The Elders. They listened thoughtfully to our briefing, creatively and diligently engaged a diverse field of excellent candidates, and supported us through a robust discernment process. What was particularly telling was that we had positive unsolicited feedback from a number of unsuccessful candidates, demonstrating that Macaulay’s work ensured that both our organisation and the candidates were well-served.”

David Nussbaum, Chief Executive, The Elders

 “As a small organisation choosing to use search was a significant investment. We selected Macaulay because we believed their approach and networks would help to realise that investment. We are so pleased we did – they found us Gail Klintworth, formerly Director of Sustainability at Unilever to be our Chair and her energy and wisdom is already transforming our governance.”

Jasmina Haynes, Chief Executive, Integrity Action for Chair and Trustees

“Macaulay provided a brilliant service in our quest to find a new CEO for Africa’s Voices Foundation; it was bespoke, highly intelligent, very thorough and 100% effective.  I would choose them again without hesitation.”

Sir David Green, Formerly Chief Executive of British Council/VSO

“We have worked with Macaulay on a number of assignments a Board, executive director and Head of department levels. They have provided an excellent service. They spend time really understanding the specific needs and requirements for a role and have produced high quality and diverse pools of candidates. They provide a lot of support through the process and have ensured that we have filled each role with someone outstanding. We will be working with them again.”
