Clear Search

Clear Search is a boutique recruitment and advisory firm founded by Eric Wale after more than two decades in FMCG recruitment. The company operates with a philosophy centred on helping both individuals and organisations discover their purpose and unlock their full potential. Beyond traditional recruitment, Clear Search offers comprehensive services including one-on-one coaching, leadership development, strength-based assessments, strategic advisory, team reorganisations, and business consulting. The firm believes that finding fulfilment in work is fundamental to overall happiness and business success, and this principle guides every engagement.

Clear Search specialises in FMCG recruitment and related talent acquisition, complemented by strategic business advisory services. The company works across multiple disciplines including strategy, marketing, sales, people and culture, finance, and operations. Clear Search assembles senior industry advisors to deliver tailored outcomes for clients, providing access to top-tier expertise that many businesses cannot afford through traditional high-end consulting firms. The advisory team brings proven leadership capacity and business acumen across diverse sectors and functional areas.

Based in Sydney, Clear Search operates as an agile company with a small footprint but significant impact across Australia. The firm serves businesses of all sizes, from startups to established enterprises, helping leaders and their teams navigate disruption and achieve sustainable growth. Clients choose Clear Search for its distinctive approach that combines rigorous talent acquisition with purpose-driven business transformation, supported by a network of industry-leading advisors and a commitment to the company's core values of curiosity, determination, compassion, and humility.
