Bright Executive Search

Bright Executive Search has specialised in FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) recruitment since 2005, placing professionals in commercial roles across manufacturing and retail sectors. The firm places candidates from approximately 5 years' work experience to C-level positions in marketing, sales, trade marketing, category management, procurement, e-commerce, shopper marketing, and general management. They work with major manufacturers and retailers, understanding the specific cultural and commercial requirements of the FMCG sector.

Founded by Monique Labega and Ester van Dusseldorp, Bright combines extensive FMCG commercial experience with recruitment expertise. They distinguish themselves through a lean, efficient approach with short lines of communication and personal relationship building, following candidates throughout their careers and acting as career sparring partners. Their consultants bring direct experience in FMCG marketing and sales, allowing them to assess both technical fit and cultural alignment.

The firm serves clients including major retailers, branded goods manufacturers, and food service companies. Clients value their personal approach, high candidate quality, transparent communication, and understanding of both FMCG business context and candidate motivations. Bright maintains long-term relationships with both candidates and employers.
