Values

Integrity and professionalism

From the outset of every assignment, we commit to what we can do and how long it will take. Because we don't try to be all things to all people, we also establish what we can't do and only accept searches that we can complete to our clients' - and our own - satisfaction.

We don't rush into suggesting retained search. Instead, we often look inside our clients' existing talent base to help them find internal solutions that might provide an obvious intellectual and cultural match.

Finally, we take confidentiality seriously. We never compromise our clients' interests by trading sensitive information or engaging searches that present a conflict.

High-touch service

Sextant's focus is on ensuring the success of our placements and, by extension, our clients. We lay the groundwork for success by creating support networks within organizations to smooth the entry of candidates, and by following up at regular intervals to troubleshoot as they navigate new professional environments.

We remain accessible at all times to our clients and candidates, who know that they can look to us to provide sound guidance on a range of issues from building or expanding a business to  developing strategies for overcoming a career plateau.
