Brighton University needed a Deputy Director of Finance to strengthen its leadership team. They initially engaged a well-known executive search firm, but its focus on senior executives didn’t quite match the university’s need for a middle-management finance leader. They required a search partner with a strong network at this level who could move quickly.
