Senior leadership for growth, transformation and value creation.
Apollo supports investors, founders, family businesses and leadership teams with the senior leadership expertise needed to build, scale and professionalise high-performing businesses.
Our work spans executive search, interim leadership, advisory and assessment — always grounded in business understanding, structured delivery and access to high-calibre leadership talent.
Executive Search
Apollo helps clients appoint CEOs and other C-suite leaders, Board Members and senior functional executives — across general management, finance, operations, strategy, sales & marketing, AI & data and technology.
We start with a deep understanding of the business context, the leadership challenge and the value the appointment needs to create. From there, we map the relevant market exhaustively, engage high-calibre candidates and guide the process through selection, referencing and close.
With our specialised label ConsultancyExit, we help our clients attract candidates with strategy consultancy backgrounds. Firms like McKinsey and Roland Berger, where our founders started their professional careers.
Our approach
A boutique firm. Committed people. Built for depth.
Apollo is built for depth, not volume. Our consultants work on a maximum of five searches simultaneously, because entrepreneurial businesses and discerning investors deserve hands-on engagement, not a process handed off down the chain. Fast calibration, disciplined delivery, no shortcuts.
Discovery.
We start by understanding the business context deeply: the strategic challenge, the value the role needs to create, the organisational dynamics and the leadership profile that genuinely fits. We pressure-test on real candidate profiles early — job descriptions only go so far.
Market mapping.
Our international research team maps the relevant candidate market exhaustively. We approach candidates with a well-positioned, compelling and professional proposition. Conversion starts with understanding both sides.
Selection and closing.
We introduce candidates along agreed evaluation criteria — highlighting strengths and areas of attention clearly. We manage the funnel proactively, support the client through interviews, referencing and negotiation, and stay close through to close.
Board Services
The effectiveness of a board is shaped by more than experience alone. It depends on the right mix of expertise, diversity of thought, governance and the ability to challenge and support leadership in equal measure.
Our Board Services combine independent board audit with executive-level board search to help organisations build high-performing boards. Whether strengthening an existing board or appointing new directors, we provide the insight, objective evaluation and access to exceptional talent needed to support long-term organisational success.
Interim Management
Apollo connects organisations with seasoned interim and freelance leaders for critical transitions, transformation needs, portfolio support and time-sensitive leadership gaps.
This includes interim executives, functional leaders, project leaders, ex-strategy consultants and portfolio support roles where senior capability is needed quickly and with confidence.
Assessments & Development Centres
By combining scientifically validated assessment methods with experienced consultant judgement, we evaluate personality, leadership behaviours, cognitive ability and real-world performance through interviews, simulations and business cases. The result is practical, evidence-based advice that helps organisations make confident talent decisions while supporting individual and team development.
Leadership and Organisational Development
The underlying question is always the same: is your organisation and leadership ready for what comes next?
We help organisations to prepare for change through structured scenario planning, leadership assessment and organisational analysis. Together, we evaluate future business scenarios, identify the leadership capabilities and organisational structures required for success, and assess whether those capabilities already exist within your organisation. The result is a practical, evidence-based roadmap options that helps leaders make informed decisions and guide their organisations through change with confidence.
“We aim to achieve search completion in approximately 9-12 weeks after kick-off.”
