Our Services

Executive Search

Since 2010, we have worked closely with a range of businesses from SMEs to Global Corporates, successfully placing the best individuals in Senior Leadership, Executive and Management roles, particularly in areas of Supply Chain, Procurement and Logistics.

We work on a highly confidential basis, discreetly identifying, engaging and presenting qualified candidates for positions such as Managing Director, CEO, Functional Director and Senior Manager

Interim and Consultancy

We work in partnership with clients to define the scope of work and find the Interim solution and Interim Executive that is right for you.

Through our expert network of highly regarded professionals, we can provide experienced Interim Managers and Consultants across a wide range of disciplines within the Supply Chain, Logistics and Procurement Sectors and across the Manufacturing, Transport, Retail and Service Sector Industries.

Contingent Recruitment and Data Base Search

We have a unique, confidential Data Base of over 20,000 Professionals. Contingent Recruitment Solutions offer a high quality, effective alternative to retained assignments.  Success only fees, ideal where there is a wider talent pool or you require faster results.

Psychometric Assessment

DSA utilise a wide range of Psychometric Assessment tools to underpin, strengthen and give further efficacy to our processes for both Recruitment and Development purposes.

Recruitment Strategy

Recruitment methods have changed considerably over the last decade; what worked ten years ago is most likely not going to work now. To ensure you can hire and engage the best talent for your business, your company needs to implement the most up to date technology, resources and methodology to retain a truly competitive edge.

Coaching and Leadership Development

In today’s highly competitive market place, engaging a business coach can make the difference between success and failure. Coaching has been proven to work for any size and type of business.

Our Advantages

Experience

DSA Consultants and Associates have a phenomenal amount of experience in their relevant fields gained in actual, real-life situations; from assessing and recruiting leaders for evolving SMEs, to coaching Senior Managers for transition and exit in Global Corporations and PE backed businesses.

Our experience is “hands on”, allowing us to understand not just the concepts and theories behind business strategy and growth, but the fundamental impact of change and the significance of this in relation to business performance.

Speed

DSA recognise that Executives and Leaders have a busy schedule that often allows little time for focus on the softer, but often critical, personal development areas of the business. Similarly, Executive Recruitment, whilst a fundamental part of business strategy, may not always be carried out in the most effective and time-efficient way.

We build Recruitment, Coaching and Development programmes around your schedule whilst also understanding that you may be working to a strict time-line and speed and time-management is key.

At the beginning of each project, we will discuss with you in detail each stage of the process and agree a time-scale with you.  We will manage your expectations and we will tell you if we cannot achieve what you want.  We are realistic, truthful and open and would prefer we begin our relationship on this basis.  We are used to working to strict time-scales and deadlines and will deliver on what we agree with you.

Leadership

Great leaders create an inspiring vision and then motivate and inspire others to reach that vision.  DSA help Executives to plan and execute key strategies allowing them and their teams to reach the goals more quickly and realise that vision.

To have the right Leader and the right Teams is essential if the business is to succeed.  DSA have proven experience in recognising and recruiting the best talent and providing guidance in developing a robust recruitment strategy that will help leaders achieve their goals.

We utilise a number of evidence based Coaching techniques together with Psychometric Assessment to help leaders build on their strengths, whilst recognising the development needs of their teams.

Assurance

As an experienced Executive Search firm and Leadership development consultancy, we appreciate that committing your brief to us needs some assurance.  We can assure you that we have extensive knowledge and extensive networks and we will deliver your brief quickly, efficiently and in the most cost-effective way possible.

But as a service based industry, it’s not always easy to take our word for it.
