Pike & Owl

Pike & Owl is an executive search and recruitment firm that draws on first-hand C-suite experience to match exceptional talent with organisations where they can excel. The firm specialises in personalised headhunting and executive search, combined with recruitment coaching. Founded with a philosophy of probing deeper, looking farther and aiming higher, Pike & Owl focuses on quality over quantity and selective placement to deliver exceptional value.

The firm specialises in four core service areas: executive search and C-level recruiting, sales and marketing recruitment focusing on digital professionals with business results experience, data and technology specialist recruitment, and international recruiting across borders. Pike & Owl prioritises value alignment methodology, spending significant time with organisations and hiring managers to understand not just skills needed but team dynamics, company values and the specific challenges the role must address.

Pike & Owl's approach is rooted in understanding both sides of executive recruitment, having built and led high-performing teams. The firm recognises that international businesses need leaders with an international mindset and specialises in finding talent with cultural awareness and global perspective. Their involvement extends beyond placement: they maintain regular contact with both clients and placed candidates during the critical first six months, ensuring successful integration. The firm offers free consultation calls and is transparent about fit, directing candidates and employers to other specialists if Pike & Owl cannot deliver value.
