The executive search practice of Latitude IT
When we search for a CxO's or CTO's, we're not starting from a cold network, we're starting from one built by actually working in this industry, at every level, for two decades.
01 — Why Latitude Executive
Generalist executive search firms build their network at the executive level, through other headhunters, industry events, cold outreach. Ours was built differently: twenty years of placing people inside tech companies, at every level, means a depth of relationships most exec search firms don't have access to.
The generalist way
A network assembled at the top, conference introductions, headhunter referrals, cold approaches to people who already have a title.
The Latitude way
A network built from the inside, two decades in the tech talent market, placing people at every level, long before they held the titles we search for today.
One appointment changes the shape of an engineering organisation.
02 — Recent searches
No logo walls, no aggregate stats. Executive search is confidential work, so we'd rather show you two real searches than a hundred vague claims.
