Executive Recruitment by an Executive Recruiter

At Oxford, our senior partner, Bernadette Testani, personally manages all phases of the search. In a traditional search firm model, executives primarily secure new business while researchers contact and screen candidates. Our unique model caters more to the needs of our clients and delivers ideal candidates faster, and at a lower cost.

To ensure that our promise of complete partner involvement is fulfilled for each executive recruitment project, Oxford never takes on in excess of four active searches at a time. To do more would mean compromising the attention and focus our client firms and candidates deserve.

We at Oxford only take on a recruiting search if there are no client conflicts, such as competing searches within the same sector. In this way, we avoid conflict of interest and "off-limits" issues, so as not to compromise our clients' access to the best candidate.


Our Services

At Oxford Partners International, we believe in acting as an ongoing partner to our clients. This means offering a complete recruitment solution, the first step of which is delivering your ideal candidate. Ensuring that candidate has a smooth transition into your organization is another vital element in the recruitment process - one that can save you from stress, downtime and other human resource issues. Finally, assessment of your existing executive team can help to surface performance gaps and remedy them before they affect mission critical operations. Oxford offers these three services individually or in any combination - as and when you need them.


Our Fees

At Oxford, we consider regular monthly retainers to be unfair to our clients and we propose a unique alternative. We only get paid upon attaining relevant milestones: the first third upon commencement of an executive search, the second when candidates are presented to your firm, and the final third when a finalist is identified. It's that simple, and proof of our confidence and commitment.
