About Us
Why Sherrington
We love what we do and that’s reflected in every assignment.
With over 40+ year's combined executive search experience, our pedigree recruiting senior leaders for clients across a wide range of sectors and international geographies is extensive. Our pursuit of excellence is relentless. Only by appointing best-in-class leaders for our clients who can truly accelerate growth and impact, can we achieve long-term partnerships to support them over decades, as we have with many of our clients.
Having supported clients with recruitment and HR services for almost twenty years, we know what works and what doesn’t. Our knowledge and expertise comes from a very well-rounded pedigree working with organisations in multiple sectors and of varying size and demographic, from family-owned SME’s in the manufacturing and logistics sectors, right up to FTSE 100 professional services companies and even household names in the charity and not-for-profit arenas. This breadth of experience gained both in the UK and internationally, means we can support clients of varying stature and with a diverse range of requirements. The common denominator is that all our clients want an attentive partner who supports them like an extension of their own team rather than a transactional third party supplier.
Unlike larger search firms and management consultancies who are wed to certain systems and processes, our size means we remain agile in our approach. We’ll only take on projects that fit with our values and where we know our expertise will really make a difference for our clients, but once retained our agility means we can support clients in a whole myriad of ways, and if the project requires a change of tack mid-way through then we’re quick to adapt.
We’re a values-driven business. Our values underpin everything we do and are the bedrock on which our work stands. It’s one thing to say you have values but we’ve worked tirelessly to define ourselves through our values, consistently scrutinising ourselves against them to make sure we’re really living them.
Sherrington Associates worked closely with us in the successful appointment of three senior sales roles all of whom added immediate value to the business on joining. Their attention to detail and diligence in finding strong shortlists of quality potential candidates sets them apart from many of their peers.
