With an integrated search and interim offering, across five broad market sectors, our business transformation practice enables leading brands to build the right leadership capability to meet evolving needs, confront operational challenges head-on and retain their competitive edge.
Our extraordinary track record in supporting business transformation programmes is one of the primary reasons we were voted Business of The Year at the Business Brilliance Awards 2019.
We operate across the UK and internationally, successfully delivering mandates across Mainland Europe, Middle East, APAC and North America.
Global Network
We have a global network of international and multi-sector transformation experts and associates who, combined, have delivered on thousands of transformation programmes, bringing with them unparalleled expertise and experience. We appoint impactful, seasoned leaders with the competencies to deliver the results our clients need – in a timescale that suits.
Specialist Knowledge
BIE’s business is underpinned by a matrix structure of experienced consultants with specialist functional expertise. We take a fast, flexible approach and ensure we source the best skills fit for your project.
Tailored Approach
We invest time to understand our clients’ strategic goals, their culture, and the commercial landscape within which they operate. We build successful, long-term relationships with our clients, which is one of the reasons why 70% of our work comes from repeat business.
"They take their time to get to know their clients and candidates. This means that I know that when they make an introduction there will be a great fit."
“BIE has a vast number of experts on tap, with different backgrounds and experiences, who can be brought in very quickly to fix problems. They focus on building a longer-term relationship with the client, which is invaluable.”
“There are only a couple of recruitment agencies that stand out for me in this ever-changing industry now – and BIE is one of them.”
“There is grey space between independent hired guns and good consultancy, and that's really where BIE is establishing a niche”.
"The differentiation from other suppliers to BIE is the trust, credibility and respect BIE carries both with the clients and experts they bring in on board”
We support our clients at every stage of the transformation programme. Whether they require top-level view consultancy, specialist leadership teams, back-fill solutions, identification of capability gaps and/or permanent functional leadership to embed changes.
