Novo’s Public Sector sector experts can help you identify & attract your next exceptional executive.

Public Sector Executive Search and Recruitment

  • Local Government
  • Central Government
  • NHS
  • Education
  • Housing
  • Third Sector

With so many wide-reaching responsibilities, as sectors they are complex. In terms of leadership this means that the skills and qualities required in the public sector are many and varied. However, one thing remains constant – the quality of the people in key positions is pivotal.

By their very nature, the public and not for profit services are inevitably highly scrutinised and pressured environments. As such, Novo Executive Search and Selection has developed a thorough understanding of the need for probity, integrity and transparency within the executive search and recruitment process in the public sector.

If you are a client looking to appoint a Chief Executive, Director or Senior Manager across Local Government, Central Government, the NHS, Education, Housing or the Third Sector we have the expertise and experience to successfully deliver.

  • “Novo was appointed to search for a new Managing Director for Chiorino UK Ltd. The UK division (one of 60 divisions worldwide) has traded for over 40 years. Novo were able to access the very best candidates, keeping us fully informed throughout the process. From the initial list of candidates presented to us we were able to recruit a successor. We were delighted with Ryan’s work. We would have no hesitation in recommending Novo.”
