Our headhunters network within a wide range of industries
The MSC Headhunting Retained Service is extremely detailed and client focused. Our experienced multilingual consultants have knowledge and experience of specific industries and can effectively identify candidates who are not actively looking for a new job.
Unlike most Executive Headhunters we do not rely on a database of candidates. Every retained search assignment is tailored and bespoke to each of our clients. We have been identifying and attracting the very best talent from across the world to our clients for over 25 years.
We guarantee to headhunt the ideal candidate for your vacancy, in all our specialist industry sectors. Don’t make the mistake of choosing an Executive Headhunting partner only to discover they rely on a database of under-achieving job-seeking candidates.
We pride ourselves on our ability to effectively hunt down and attract the most talented candidates from across the world. Our retained service process begins by better understanding your business, corporate culture and recruitment requirements. The MSC research team consists of highly skilled professionals with the unique ability to identify candidates within highly complex organisations. Our commitment ensures that our reach is global and our search efforts are fast, targeted and efficient. This is why MSC is the only Executive Search firm to offer 3 guarantees to all client assignments that we accept.
Our retained search is totally transparent. We ensure you are always informed and remain up-to-date at every stage of your assignment by providing you with a comprehensive weekly report. Our transparent communication methods provide you with the assurance that we are acting both professionally and in strict confidence. We pride ourselves on our candidate and client confidentially.
The MSC retained headhunting process guarantees to provide our clients with a shortlist of the industry’s best people within a guaranteed time frame, and then for the appointed candidate to remain in their role for over 12 months. This way you are assured we will bring you the world’s top achievers from anywhere in the world and that they will be committed, motivated and relevant for your business.

The MSC Headhunting reputation is built on mutual trust and industry respect. Our work is guaranteed and we are contractually bound to ensuring we provide our clients and candidates with the highest professionalism, honesty and accountability.
MSC provides the highest level of service: we proactively anticipate and respond to client needs and guarantee to deliver a fully screened shortlist of relevant candidates that meet your profile. All candidates are guaranteed in their role for 12 months (6 months for non-board level) or we will find a replacement at no extra charge.
Our clients have confidence and trust when using our Retained Service because our guarantees ensure quality and commitment from all parties involved. We identify and target candidates from the cream of your competitors’ staff, persuading them as to why they should join your team. We never talk to unhappy candidates on the lookout, or persistent under-performers under pressure to move.
Whereas the industry norm relies heavily on database recruitment, the MSC Retained Service is research focused and tailor made for each client and project. We continually update information on market sectors, competitor analysis and industry knowledge. Therefore we would never use a database of disaffected individuals.
Our success stems from sourcing and persuading the very best people to work for our clients. Candidates and clients trust MSC Headhunting because we deliver more than we promise. That’s why clients across Europe and the globe always return to us as you can see from our portfolio of customers and their references.
