mavis

mavis is an executive search business that represents senior leaders in creative, design, product and tech. It works with a small roster of VP, Director, C-suite and Non-Exec talent, and says it has helped build leadership teams for over a decade at start-ups, scale-ups and global brands in sectors including fintech, fashion, AI, SaaS and health.

The firm is female-led and was co-founded by Helen Fleming and Melissa Phillips. It says it grew from recruitment into executive search, and it now also represents the leaders themselves. Its support for them includes shaping their career story, interview preparation, negotiation and advice. Its stated specialisms include talent representation and advisory, senior and C-suite appointments, non-executive roles and international search.
