Mid-Year Review 2023

Mid-year review – activity and highlights.

As we’ve crossed the half way point of 2023, we’d like to share an overview of our activity from the first six months of the year.

Since our last update in early January, we have seen a sustained demand for high quality CFO’s together with a gradual increase in CEO mandates. This has been offset by the continued dampening of demand at Chair level which we sense is driven by the relative paucity of new deals in the PE market. Otherwise, trading has been steady with no material change across sector or UK region. What may appear to be an increase in UK activity when compared to Germany is simply a consequence of our own increase in headcount in our UK consulting team.

Beyond assignment work, our directors hosted 5 networking events across London, Manchester, Birmingham and Frankfurt including a Retail & Consumer sector event with KPMG and our annual PE Dinner in Germany.

Throughout the second half of the year, we remain focused on high quality outcomes for our mid-market clients as well as delivering a further 8 events for our PE clients and Board-level candidates.
