Mandates

An engagement, not a subscription.

You are not purchasing a package. You are entering a private service relationship with a house that will decline the work if it cannot be done properly.

How to read this

Every engagement follows the same method. What changes between levels is the depth of the search, the reach across markets, the degree of personal access to your advisor, and how far we accompany you once introductions begin.

Fees are agreed privately and in full before any work commences. The figures below indicate where each level of engagement commences; they are not a price list, and there are no monthly charges, renewals or automatic extensions.

I

  • Private consultation and personal profile
  • Search conducted within one primary market
  • Candidates drawn from the existing private network
  • Every candidate personally met and verified
  • Introductions made only with mutual consent
  • Debrief and guidance following each introduction

  • Structured compatibility assessment for each candidate

The Private
Mandate

Engagement commences at$120,000

By invitation or referral. A small number are accepted in any year.

An international, open-ended mandate for individuals whose circumstances require an entirely private search — often conducted without our name appearing anywhere near it.

  • Mandate led personally by a principal of the house
  • International search, without geographic limitation
  • Discreet search conducted under confidentiality throughout
  • Where required, we do not disclose that a search is taking place
  • Coordination with your existing private office or advisors
  • Relationship advisory continuing beyond the introduction
  • Invitation to private gatherings, and to bring a friend of the house
  • Availability arranged around your calendar, in any time zone

Which level

We will tell you honestly.

After the first consultation we recommend the level of engagement the search actually requires — including, at times, a lower one than you expected. If we do not believe we can serve you well, we say so and charge nothing.

Specificity

How defined is the brief?

Narrow requirements — faith, culture, family intentions, profession, geography — demand a wider search, not a longer list.

Geography

Where can this person be?

A single city is a defined search. Several are a campaign. No limitation at all is a mandate.

Exposure

How visible are you?

Public profile, professional sensitivity or family considerations change how a search must be conducted.

Involvement

How closely should we accompany you?

Some members want introductions and nothing more. Others want counsel through the first year.

Admission is not guaranteed at any level. We accept members we believe we can genuinely serve, and decline the rest with courtesy.

All enquiries are held in confidence. Common questions
