Executive Search
Board, C-Suite and senior leadership appointments.
Confidential, personally managed search for the appointments that define an organisation. Every mandate is led by Jon Dugdale from initial brief through to appointment.
What We Do
Executive search conducted with the rigour and discretion that senior appointments demand.
Wexbridge conducts retained executive search for board, C-Suite and senior leadership roles across the UAE, GCC and international markets.
We work on a retained basis, which means we are fully committed to each assignment and accountable for the outcome. There are no contingency arrangements for executive search mandates.
Every search is personally managed by the founder. Clients deal directly with Jon Dugdale at every stage — from brief and market mapping through to candidate presentation, process management and appointment.
Process
Our Search Process
A structured, transparent approach from brief to appointment.
Brief & Discovery
We invest significant time understanding the role, the organisation, the culture and the context before we begin. A well-defined brief produces a better search.
Market Mapping
We identify the full landscape of relevant talent — not just those who are actively looking. Our network spans the UAE, GCC and international markets.
Candidate Engagement
Every candidate is approached personally and assessed rigorously against the brief. We present a focused shortlist, not a volume of CVs.
Shortlist & Assessment
Shortlisted candidates are presented with detailed profiles covering background, motivation, assessment and our recommendation. We facilitate structured interviews and provide feedback throughout.
Offer & Appointment
We manage the offer process, support negotiation where appropriate, and remain available to both client and candidate through onboarding and beyond.
