Exec Capital is a specialist executive search and C-suite recruitment firm based in London, founded in 2018 by Adrian Lawrence FCA — a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. We place permanent, interim, and fractional executives across the full C-suite for UK businesses at every stage of growth, from founder-led SMEs to PE-backed mid-market companies.
Our core recruitment capability covers CEO recruitment, COO recruitment, CFO recruitment, CMO recruitment, CTO recruitment, and CIO recruitment, alongside the full spectrum of director-level appointments including Sales Director, HR Director, and Managing Director searches. We also place Non-Executive Directors, Chairmen, and board advisors for businesses building or strengthening their governance capability.
The Exec Capital podcast covers the practical realities of executive leadership, C-suite hiring, and building high-performing senior teams. Topics span the full range of challenges facing UK business leaders — from knowing when to hire a fractional CEO or fractional COO rather than a permanent appointment, to how to structure board compensation and what makes an interim CEO engagement succeed.
We publish detailed salary guides to help businesses and candidates understand current market rates across C-suite disciplines — including our CEO salary guide, CFO salary guide, and broader executive compensation resources.
Every search Exec Capital conducts is led personally by Adrian Lawrence. There are no junior consultants and no handoffs. If you are a business looking to hire at C-suite or board level, or an executive exploring your next move, visit execcapital.co.uk or call 020 3834 9616.
