Our work does not end once a candidate has been appointed. Around 40% of executives leave within the first 18 months of starting a new role, according to Fortune magazine. This is hugely costly to an organisation but can be avoided through better recruitment and more effective induction.
We work with clients to prepare leaders for transitioning into a new role by equipping them with the skills and insights needed to achieve immediate success.
From day one we support candidates by smoothing the transition and helping them build productive relationships. Our rigorous approach helps executives understand the organisational culture, learn how decisions are made and how to implement ideas successfully. And our unrivalled knowledge of the business and client landscape enables us to tailor onboarding plans to specific roles.

Testimonials
Our clients trust us to find the right person at the first time of asking
Tony is my go-to search consultant for executive leaders. His deep knowledge and understanding of the retail market combined with his extensive network enables him to put forward exceptional candidates.
I also find that he listens and asks great questions to truly understand what is needed for each role and for the organisation. I have recruited some of my very best leaders through him.
Tony has a refreshingly honest approach with a real desire to understand not only the scope of the role he is recruiting for but also the cultural fit – so key in considering potential candidates.
He has a positive attitude and is very responsive to deadlines. He also encourages feedback on all candidates and uses that to further develop them as individuals and improve his own selection process.
He is genuinely interested in ensuring that all parties are happy with the outcome once candidates are placed.
I have worked with Tony at agp for many years both as a client and a candidate.
Tony has in-depth experience and knowledge of the consumer industry which enables him to really understand the client’s and candidate’s needs and requirements in the interim market. This expertise has translated into great quality interim roles and candidates.
On a personal level Tony is friendly, approachable and responsive which makes him a pleasure to work with.
