“Wilton & Bain is always my ‘go to’ provider for industry-leading subject matter experts. Their network of professionals is second to none and Wilton & Bain’s focus on quality means you are almost guaranteed a great injection into your team. I genuinely believe that Jason is at the top his game as a search leader, executive coach and business partner. He strikes a wonderful balance between provider and challenger to ensure all his clients ask the right questions and he really broadens their thinking around people strategies.”
“Having previously worked with Wilton & Bain, I had no hesitation in reaching out to them again to help us secure an Interim Sales Director. Hiring in our sector is not always easy as there are very few experienced people, however understanding the brief, what the requirements were and how these manifested in terms of skillsets, meant they provided us with exceptional candidates who could easily and quickly understand the nuances. We made an appointment very quickly and our interim has (and continues) to be a valuable member of our team, making an instant impact. Subsequently they were also able to source extremely quickly a procurement consultant where we had a burning issue. I would highly recommend Wilton & Bain as great partners to work with.”
“As we transformed our business at SharkNinja we needed to bring in the absolute best leaders who would then build unstoppable teams to drive our exponential growth. The Team at W&B were essential partners on this journey as they not only worked at pace to identify and deliver top-talent, but relentlessly offered candid guidance based on their vast industry knowledge.”
