Pareto specialises in discovering elite sales talent, especially individuals who are not actively seeking new opportunities, providing you with a distinctive advantage in your executive search. For over two decades, we've partnered with CEOs, MDs, and Sales and Marketing Directors in some of the most sales-oriented, rapidly evolving businesses worldwide. We have headhunted and placed exceptional sales and commercial talent and leaders globally, including the UK, Europe, Canada, Australia, and North America.

Through our extensive expertise in recruiting commercial roles, we have been praised for our targeted headhunting approach, which ensures we connect you with top-tier sales talent from the passive market. Our commitment to excellence means we only bring you the best talent that other sales recruitment consultancies can't offer. For example, when we put a candidate forward at Pareto, one in three is offered the role. Such a high success rate makes us the market leader in executive sales recruitment.
In whatever industry you work in, our executive search will help you find the best senior talent to meet and exceed your specific needs. Furthermore, we offer a robust and diverse executive sales recruitment offering, spanning key roles such as Sales and Commercial Professionals to CEOs, MDs, and VPs, ensuring a comprehensive and impactful solution for your talent and leadership requirements.
Our experienced delivery and research consultants will spend time understanding your organisation, role, culture and the required attributes of the person you seek. We will map your target market, identify the key players, and headhunt the best talent from within that pool.
When providing executive sales recruitment, we don't just rely on our network; we proactively search and headhunt to find the perfect candidate who meets your business needs, also going after passive talent that isn't actively applying for positions.
We take the time to thoroughly screen and assess each candidate. We conduct a rigorous competency-based assessment of a candidate's skills and personality to ensure we find the best fit for your business.
Our talent solution includes providing you with detailed search insights and market intelligence, ensuring you’re informed at every step of our partnership. Our deep dive into your markets and industries allows us to ensure you get a thorough view of best-in-class talent through the lens of where they are currently performing, what targets they are exceeding and how they would fit within the role you have.
We prioritise clear communication and a personalised approach. We discuss why each candidate has been chosen and why they're worth considering, ensuring a tailored experience for you. Your input is invaluable, shaping our search process and enabling a true partnership in selecting the shortlist. Once we've identified the best candidates, we'll present them to you, along with a summary of our interview observations.
Additionally, we offer support on negotiation and embedding the new hire into your organisation, including follow-up check-ins to ensure a smooth transition and long-term success.
No one knows the sales industry like us. Unlike most sales recruitment consultancies, we've been at the forefront of senior sales, commercial hiring, and executive sales recruitment since 2010. We use this experience every single day.
Our wealth of experience means we know what it takes to assess, place and train a top senior sales and commercial hire for your business. Additionally, we understand what outstanding looks like, which is why we are the leading executive sales recruitment provider in the country and internationally, with a significant presence in the UK, the US and Europe.
Our client-led approach enables us to dive deep into understanding your organisational needs and aligning them with exceptional candidates. We focus on identifying individuals whose strengths seamlessly complement your business, ensuring a perfect match with the position and organisational culture.
We recognise that we're doing more than just filling any position with our executive sales recruitment. In these roles, we align leadership, culture fit, behaviours, values and vision to match your business goals and objectives.
Whether you're looking to hire a Sales Director, Head of Sales, VP of Sales, or Commercial Director, we will work closely with you and your business to understand what you're looking for and who you'd like to attract.
