OUR SERVICES
Three Ways to Engage.
Designed around the nature and urgency of your hire.
01
Exclusive Retained
Reserved for your most critical and senior mandates – the hires expected to drive meaningful strategic change. We partner with you from the outset, conducting a thorough and confidential market-wide search with structured milestones.
02
Exclusive Contingent
You're actively in market and committed to finding the right person. We work exclusively with you, dedicating our full focus to identifying and securing the best candidate for the role.
03
Opportunistic
You're not actively hiring, but you'd move for the right person. We keep your business front of mind as we engage with the market, ensuring you're in the flow of exceptional candidates as they emerge.
HOW WE WORK
Every search is different, but the
approach is always the same.
Thorough, transparent and collaborative. From the moment a mandate is agreed, we work closely with you to understand not just the role, but your business, your culture and what success looks like. That means going beyond a job description, mapping the market, positioning your opportunity compellingly to the right candidates, and building a process that reflects the seriousness of the hire.
Throughout the search, you'll always know where things stand. We believe the best outcomes come from a genuine partnership between client and consultant, and we bring the same rigour and care to every assignment regardless of size.
Who We Work With
Cirrus partners with Australian and global asset management firms at every stage of growth — from established institutions to emerging managers looking to scale. We have also assisted offshore managers navigating their initial entry into the Australian market.
We typically recruit across distribution, investment, and ESG functions, spanning asset classes including:
-
Equities (Australian & International)
-
Fixed Income
-
Infrastructure
-
Real Estate
-
Private Equity
-
Private Credit
-
Other Alternatives
If you're building a team, replacing a key person, or entering a new channel or market, we'd welcome the conversation.
