Here's how
01.
Our approach
Whether we go “way back” or are talking to a candidate for the first time, the relationship we build with our community of HR leaders is powerful and long-lasting.
We welcome regular career conversations, aiming to stay in touch by providing you with relevant insight & news, new tools, products & innovation that we learn about by being so entrenched in the People space. We strive to ensure we become invaluable to you, when you are looking for a new opportunity, and when you are not.
02.
Breadth of Opportunities
Our connections are forged within the dynamic Global HR Leadership community. but our daily conversations extend to founders, CEOs, investors & board members grappling with the critical challenge that leaders face to attract, engage, develop & retain the only real differentiator in the modern business world – people.
We remain sector agnostic, believing that cross-pollination of industry experience adds true value. Our networks span FTSE, Fortune 500, AIM-listed & Private Equity-backed businesses, as well as Start-ups and VC-backed Scale-ups.

What you can expect
Being part of the Tucker Stone network means you have access to honest feedback, advice and guidance, a partner through your search for a new role (whether we are representing you or not) and someone you can rely upon throughout your career.
04.
Where capability meets culture
We want to find the best candidates for our clients, and that involves presenting people they would expect, and those they might not have considered.
HR skills are only half the story; we want to know how you like to work, whether you will suit the dynamic of an executive team, and if your values & purpose are aligned to the company’s aspirations. By exploring what inspires & motivates you, we can assess which culture will allow you to thrive.
I can’t sing Tucker Stone’s praises highly enough. My engagement with the team was fantastic. They took a thorough approach in understanding not only my needs for my next role, but also the bigger picture around my working style and what I place value on when joining a new organisation. Tucker Stone communicated with candour throughout; they also went above and beyond to provide visibility on where the process was at. An excellent experience!

Candidate testimonials
I cannot say enough about Tucker Stone. Each step of the way I was overly communicated to as to next steps in the process. Everyone I dealt with was professional, upbeat and personable. I always felt you had me top of mind and treated like I was your only client!
Mohammed Ali, SVP People Partner - Dow Jones
The value that Tucker Stone place on understanding their candidates really shone through for me. During my interactions with both Moyra and Olivia, I really appreciated the investment they made in understanding my role requirements and preferred cultural environments. During my latest process, Moyra had a fantastic understanding of the client, what makes them tick, whether they would be a cultural right fit for me and provided real insight whilst prepping me for my interviews on what to expect. Since being placed in the role, the client has absolutely delivered in terms of the environment I will thrive in – I couldn’t have made this call without Moyra’s extra insight and knowledge of the client.

When looking my next opportunity, Tucker Stone was recommended to me by both a previous placed candidate and another Search firm. I had an exceptional experience – the whole life cycle of setting up conversations and interviews then receiving in depth feedback was faultless for me. Tucker Stone were brilliant in identifying my skills and experience and were genuinely interested in what opportunity might be the best next step. The whole interviewing process felt really bespoke and so personal, I felt like I was the only person on the books. A stunning experience

The fact that Tucker Stone have dedicated resource for candidate experience speaks volumes when thinking about my experience with them. My process was so fast as the client wanted to move quickly but Hugo and Martha were with me every step of the way. Hugo was transparent and pitched the role at the perfect level, he also gave his perspective on how the job might suit my experience and style which I really appreciated. Martha was extremely efficient in scheduling my meetings, ensuring I had all the information I needed. The most efficient and personalised recruiting experience I have had.

Tucker Stone are streets ahead of other executive search firms when it comes to the candidate experience. The whole process was seamless and professional. I was briefed on what to expect heading into each of my interviews, helping me gauge the tone/style of meeting. Olivia is amazing; she cares and is open, constructive and timely in her communications. Martha was fabulous; she was on it every step of the way and very responsive throughout.

My experience with Tucker Stone was top notch. I truly felt supported from the very start. The team was engaging and thoughtful and provide extremely valuable guidance and advice throughout my candidacy. The specialised approach and customised partnership was one-of-a-kind.

After working in the recruiting business myself earlier in my career, I especially appreciated the attention to detail and consultative approach that Tucker Stone took throughout my candidacy. Tucker Stone made me feel comfortable every step of the way and I would welcome the opportunity to work with them again, whether it be as a candidate or a hiring manager. The key differentiators were their excellent follow-up skills and holistic understanding of their client's business.

What stands out for me is how personable Tucker Stone are. Honesty and transparency were key aspects that I really valued, as well as being kept well informed between each stage of the process.

Tucker Stone make you feel like an individual with a unique set of skills and expertise. Olivia wanted to personally get to know me as an individual as opposed to feeling like just a number to add into the recruitment mix. Her experience and knowledge is fantastic, along with her ability to build relationships with candidates.
