Our Firm

Pedersen & Partners is a leading international Executive Search firm. Operating 50 offices in 47 countries, the firm was founded by Poul Pedersen in 2001 with the establishment of the first offices in Prague and Warsaw. Our offices around the world are 100% owned by the partners who work full-time to serve our clients.

Today our client and quality focused approach has proven itself and we are a truly an international Executive Search firm, with all of our capital and management resources fully dedicated to making Pedersen & Partners the very best Executive Search firm.  We attach considerable importance to having an on-the-ground presence, as this enables us to stay in close touch with the candidate pool and to provide real guidance on cultural issues across the markets we operate in.

As a single profit centre partnership, our clients are ensured that we work as one team across the organisation. We provide an integrated and high-quality Executive Search service and deliver consistent results both locally and internationally. With our proven Executive Search process we help our clients attract top quality managers and leaders.

The Pedersen & Partners team is supported by robust quality management processes, an intensive training programme and a state-of-the-art IT system, giving our consultants immediate access to an extensive and up-to-date network of executives.

In addition Pedersen & Partners combines its country organisation with international practice groups. As a result, we understand our clients’ needs across industry practices as well as countries, enabling us to provide up-to-date industry knowledge and a deep cross-country candidate network.
