Spider - Retained Executive Search

Our history Since 2005, Spider has worked closely with clients to define, attract and select their future leadership. Throughout this period we have successfully partnered with numerous organizations across different industries in the MEA region. We work with HR Leads, CEO’s and Board members. We seek to understand each client’s strategic goals, the specific leadership roles and competencies needed to meet those goals, and the culture that new executives need to embody. Our approach We start with a comprehensive understanding of each of our clients. This means investigating the 'DNA' of the organization – probing the culture, organizational values, business model and strategic goals of the enterprise as a whole. Every time our consultants take on a search assignment they are making a commitment that they will be available - in terms of both intellectual engagement and time; honest in their read of the market; and, no matter how challenging the assignment, they will deliver the results they have promised. Our methodology Once we have truly understood our client’s corporate DNA, we undergo a “job needs survey” which is crucial to: • Understand the key requirements and challenges of the role. • The skills, knowledge and behaviors needed to perform and excel. • Determine the optimal search strategy. By doing so, we are able to identify, select and recommend candidates that not only possess the skills and knowledge required to succeed within the role but whom also fit the business environment and working culture. Sourcing We conduct comprehensive searches based on the key requirements of the role. We assess Knowledge, Skills, Behaviors, work ethic as well as motivational and cultural fit. We take a different approach to our task, in that we look for the best fit for the role and approach them directly. We continuously search for “passive” candidates.
