Cripps Leadership Advisors delivers executive search and leadership consultancy to boards and CEOs in the infrastructure, energy, resources and transportation industries.

For 50 years, our mission has been to facilitate profound growth for our clients by appointing and developing remarkable leaders and exceptional teams.

We are an independent, director-owned organisation. At our core are strong relationships founded on knowledge, understanding and trust. They allow us to deliver the tailored and personal service we are known for. It’s why many of our clients from around the world have been with us for decades. 

These relationships also form the foundation of our rigorous hiring process for board, c-suite and executive positions. First, we collaborate on a watertight job spec and competency framework, from location to role, responsibilities and behavioural requirements. Next, our in-house team of industrial psychologists and industry consultants engage with the current team to identify gaps and opportunities. Then, we introduce candidates with the knowledge, skills and psychometric profile to strengthen the workforce and deliver growth. 

Beyond executive search, we are a trusted partner for bespoke, industry-specific leadership advice. Depending on the challenge or opportunity, we provide psychological profiling, hiring assessments, cultural assessments and integration, organisational design, executive coaching, leadership and team development, succession planning, pre-investment due diligence and board appraisals. 

Our talent for strong teams echoes through our own personnel. As a collective, we thrive on joined-up thinking and the power of information exchange. And we share our clients’ ambitions for inspiring growth. So, whether it’s collaborating on the ideal job spec or optimising interdepartmental communication, we enable our clients to maximise return on investment, transform their company and make a positive impact on the world.
