Leaders who deliver lasting impact, powered by evidence and insight

About Impact Talent

A global executive search partner built on evidence and expert human insight.

Impact Talent partners with organisations shaping global trade, industry, and infrastructure, helping them appoint leaders who deliver measurable, long-term impact.

We specialise in senior and specialist hiring across shipping, ports, freight forwarding, logistics, supply chain, industrial manufacturing, aviation, and large-scale infrastructure projects. Since 2020, we have delivered senior and specialist hires across 30+ countries, combining global reach with deep local understanding of complex and emerging markets.

We bring structure, clarity, and insight to senior hiring, particularly in environments where talent is scarce and cultural intelligence, leadership adaptability, and resilience matter most.

Our work centers on a simple principle:

• Great leadership transforms outcomes.
• Great hiring reduces risk.

We exist to help clients achieve both.


Why It Matters

Senior hiring has never been more complex. The right leader accelerates performance, strengthens culture, and unlocks growth, while the wrong hire creates strategic, financial, and operational risk.

We help organisations navigate this complexity with a methodology built on evidence, expert judgement, and a deep understanding of how leaders succeed in multicultural, high-stakes environments.

Our Approach

Hiring senior talent shouldn't rely on instinct alone.

Our approach blends:
• Science: structured assessments, psychometrics, competency frameworks
• Expert Human Insight: deep experience in multicultural, complex international markets

Together, these reduce hiring risk, strengthen retention, and support long-term organisational performance.
