Get in touchAn intelligence-driven approach with a human touch
We know you don’t want any leader. You want the right leader. Our goal is to help you find leaders that have what it takes to drive your company’s success.
That’s where our expertise comes into its own. We start by determining what goals the leader needs to deliver. We dig deep and challenge what a good leader would look like. And what a great leader would look like. And what your employer value proposition is for someone in that role.
Once we know what is needed we make sure we leave no stone unturned to find the right potential people for you. We can tap into our dedicated research team who have a range of BI and research tools at their fingertips. And our industry teams with deep sector knowledge and unrivalled networks work together to introduce perspective from outside your sector when needed giving you fresh, diverse thinking and options.
It’s a stringent, comprehensive approach. And one that has proven to work. The numbers speak for themselves:
- 96% of roles we work on get successfully filled
- 95% of candidates places are still in their role one year on
- 99% of clients are satisfied with the process and outcome as are 98% of candidates.
“We have received an excellent service from New Street Consulting Group in relation to the recruitment process for the chief executive and deputy chief executive/finance director roles. Both processes were executed in a responsive, professional and transparent way with the necessary rigour and attention to detail required.”

The Manchester College
“NSCG took time in the initial briefing to understand the context as well as the actual role content for the UK managing director position. The team checked in on us from time to time to ensure they were reading the situation and discussed the likely fit of each of the candidates presented versus the specification. They then championed the evaluation of a key candidate who was outside the initial scope – but proved to be a strong fit”

Ideal Standard
"What I appreciated very much was NSCG's capacity to truly understand our needs. They showed tremendous focus and drive to find the right candidate rapidly, but without cutting corners in terms of the quality of the profiles put forward."
