MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO

When I founded Hyperion Executive Search in 2014, I had, and still have, two goals in mind. Firstly, to create a global executive search firm that would make a meaningful impact in the growth of the clean technology sector. The second was to create a company where people could truly grow, contribute, and build meaningful, challenging and rewarding careers.  I have over twenty years of recruitment and search experience. I’ve worked for some great companies and bosses, and some that really sucked. My first recruitment job was literally here’s a phone, here’s a directory, make 100 calls a day! Hyperion is the antithesis of this. Do we measure metrics of course, you can’t improve what you don’t measure. Do we beat anyone with a stick based on KPI’s? Never.

I’m really proud of the team we’ve built, the clients we’ve worked for, and the impact we’ve made in our cleantech sector and sub-sectors. But most of all I’m proud of the culture we’ve built and are building. You’ll hear comments from some of the team below, about why they work here, what they like, and how they’ve grown, personally.

The company can only grow, and make more impact, if we hire outstanding people, committed to their personal development, growth and personal goals. No matter where you live, if you share our values, our mission to make an impact through our placements, have a burning desire to grow and succeed, and want an environment that facilitates that growth and success, let’s talk.
