Executive Assessment & Development

Over the past years the reliability and validity of psychometric tests and measures has improved significantly and now many organisations routinely use Executive Assessment to better understand a candidate's suitability for a role and as part of due diligence before making an appointment.

In every case we establish the core requirements of the role before we decide on the appropriate methods of assessment. Our standard approach is to triangulate psychometric assessment (from personality measures and cognitive tests) with behavioural evidence (from structured interviews) against the core requirements from the job description. In this way we increase the predictive validity of our assessment process. Our reports, written up by our team of Occupational Psychologists, are commercially focused and will help you to make a more informed selection decision.

Our recent assignments include CEOs, Managing Directors and Finance Directors, plus director-level roles in IT, HR and Sales and Marketing. The sectors served include Energy; Telecommunications; NHS Trusts; the pharmaceutical industry; professional services organisations; global law firms; and manufacturing companies.

Throughout the process, care is taken to ensure that candidates are treated with care and respect and that none of our psychometric tools and techniques adversely impact on any particular minority group.
