Turgot Executive Search is an executive search firm that conducts your leadership recruitment with the rigour of a craftsman and the power of artificial intelligence.
An executive search firm is judged on a single criterion: the quality of the decision it enables its client to make. At Turgot Executive Search, every mandate is entrusted to a sector-specialised consultant who knows the organisations, the pay scales and the talent pools of their market. Our difference isn't a marketing claim — it's a method: AI handles sourcing and qualification at scale, while the consultant retains control of everything that requires human judgment.
Every mission is led by a sector specialist who decides, negotiates and stakes their judgment — AI equips them, it never replaces them.
Our agents map tens of thousands of profiles, both active and passive, where a manual search would stop at a few hundred CVs.
You follow your mission in real time — profiles sourced, milestones reached, market indicators — without ever having to ask where things stand.
Our method unfolds in three phases: listening and framing the real need, augmented sourcing to build an exhaustive pool, then human judgment to qualify, advocate for and support the shortlist through to signature. Whatever doesn't require human judgment — identification, follow-up, reporting — is handled before you even have to ask.
Executive search targets leadership and executive committee positions through direct approach to candidates who are rarely actively looking. It demands deep market knowledge and a confidential process, unlike advertisement-based recruitment.
General management, executive committees, C-level functions and strategic roles in finance, real estate, energy and financial services, in France as in Singapore.
A relevant longlist is delivered within 48 hours thanks to augmented sourcing; the full mission, through to signature, typically runs 6 to 10 weeks depending on how rare the profile is.
