Executive Search Firm in London for Organisations in Growth or Transformation
Periods of growth, change, or transformation ask more of a business. They demand leaders who can cut through complexity, steady the organisation, and accelerate performance. Adastrum Consulting is an executive search firm in London that helps employers secure the senior talent required to lead with clarity, conviction, and impact.
We specialise in identifying C suite and technology leaders who bring strategic insight, operational rigour, and the emotional intelligence needed to shape high performing teams. Our work blends rigorous assessment with deep market experience, giving clients access to the right leaders at the right moment.
Executive Search for C-Suite and Technology Leaders
Great leadership does more than fill a position. It changes the direction of an organisation. Our executive search service focuses on C suite and senior technology roles where the stakes are high and the margin for error is narrow.
We support employers seeking technology executive search expertise across modern business critical roles. This includes senior leaders in digital transformation, data, cyber, product, engineering, and enterprise technology. We also search for CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and other board level executives who can shape culture, drive performance, and deliver sustainable profit.
Our approach to tech executive search combines research, behavioural insight, structured evaluation, and a deep appreciation for cultural fit. Clients work with us because they value a search partner who listens, challenges, and brings measured judgement to every recommendation.
If you need a search firm that understands technology, understands transformation, and understands leadership, Adastrum provides a level of depth rarely found among technology executive search firms.
Interim Management and Interim Leadership Solutions
When a leadership gap appears, the organisation cannot wait. Decisions still need to be made, teams still need direction, and momentum still needs to be protected. Our interim management service gives employers rapid access to proven senior leaders who can stabilise a function, guide a transformation, or deliver a critical programme. Adastrum supports interim management appointments across the UK, placing experienced executives who bring immediate capability and a clear plan of action. We partner with organisations seeking interim leadership in technology, finance, operations, digital, or major change.
Our network includes interim technology leaders who can step into CIO, CTO, CISO, Product, or Engineering roles at pace. It also includes seasoned general managers and change specialists who can restore confidence, build structure, and improve performance during times of disruption. For employers comparing interim management companies or considering a more specialist interim management consultant, we bring a thoughtful, relationship driven approach.

This insights-driven approach, fuelled by genuine human connection, allows us to identify great leaders who not only possess the right skills but also bring diverse perspectives and challenge the status quo, creating a high-performing executive team uniquely equipped to achieve your specific strategic goals.
