Shawfield & Sloane Ltd

Shawfield & Sloane Ltd is a bespoke executive search firm founded by Jamieson Hodgson to address a gap in the market for a more personal, invested and detail-driven approach to leadership recruitment. With over two decades of business leadership, investment and recruitment experience, the firm specialises in high-value senior appointments where leadership quality directly influences organisational growth and long-term value. Every search is personally led by the founding team, discreetly executed and built on relationships rather than databases, with rigorous assessment that examines judgement, resilience and cultural alignment beyond credentials.

Shawfield & Sloane operates across select high-value sectors including real estate and financial services, luxury industry executive search, cross-industry C-suite appointments and hospitality. The firm's approach is characterised by founder-led insight, a personally curated network of senior talent many of whom are not actively on the market, and a success-based fee model where clients pay only upon successful appointment. This ensures alignment, accountability and confidence in delivery.

The firm maintains offices in the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates, serving clients across the UK, EU and Middle East. Shawfield & Sloane is trusted by founders, boards and senior leadership teams who value discretion, judgement and long-term partnership. The company deliberately limits the number of mandates accepted at any one time to prioritise depth of attention, commercial clarity and enduring client relationships over volume.
