An opportunity to build and lead a Search business within an established and growing Public Sector SME.

SATIGO is looking for an experienced Executive Search professional to join our leadership team and take responsibility for growing our Executive Search business.

This is not a traditional recruitment role. We are looking for someone who wants the opportunity to build something, grow the client base, win assignments, develop the proposition, build a team and become an important part of the wider SATIGO business as we scale.

Over the last five years, SATIGO has developed a strong footprint within the UK Public Sector, with two core service lines:

  • SoW Delivery – specialist consultants and digital teams delivering defined projects and outcomes.
  • Executive Search – senior leadership and executive appointments across the Public Sector.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

We have recently secured a place on the GCA Executive Search framework covering Grade 6 and SCS1–SCS4 appointments, alongside a wider portfolio of Public Sector frameworks and existing client relationships.

The foundations are there. We now want someone to come in and grow the Search business.

Responsibilities

As Director, you will have the autonomy to:

  • Develop the practice building senior relationships across the Public Sector
  • Convert our framework access into assignments
  • Develop new clients
  • Deliver high-quality Executive Search mandates

As the business grows, we want you to:

  • Build and lead your own team
  • Expand into new areas
  • Play a meaningful role in the future direction of SATIGO

Requirements

We are particularly interested in speaking with people who:

  • Have a strong background in Executive or Senior Search
  • Understand the UK Public Sector and its senior leadership market
  • Have relationships they can bring to the table and develop further
  • Can originate and win business, rather than purely deliver assignments
  • Have the ambition to build and lead a successful Search practice
  • Want greater autonomy and ownership than they might have within a traditional search firm
