The people behind Cadence Partners

At Cadence Partners, we’re a team of curious, principled and collaborative people who care deeply about helping organisations find and grow the leaders they need.

We come from different backgrounds and sectors, but we share a belief in the power of inclusive, values-led leadership to create real change. Our work is rooted in partnership and curiosity – we listen closely, challenge constructively and stay connected long after each project ends.

Between us, we bring expertise across executive search, top-tier consulting on strategy, transformation and organisational design, and leadership development. But more than that, we bring empathy, integrity and a genuine commitment to progress.

We work best together, combining our skills and perspectives to deliver thoughtful, people-centred solutions for every client.
