Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Hiring at CEO level in consumer businesses is rarely about finding someone who has already held the title elsewhere.

In many cases, the strongest appointments come from individuals operating one level below, within larger or more advanced organisations, who are ready to step into broader leadership responsibility. Understanding where that talent sits, and how to engage it effectively, is a key part of delivering a successful CEO search.

At Lime Talent, we support consumer businesses across FMCG and consumer products in identifying high calibre leadership talent for Chief Executive Officer appointments. We work with both established organisations and fast growing challenger brands, helping them secure leaders who are right for the role, the environment and the stage of growth.

Our approach is built around targeted search and direct approach rather than reliance on advertising. This allows us to access candidates beyond the active market and engage individuals who may not otherwise be visible through traditional recruitment methods.

Each of our Consultants specialises within the consumer sector, ensuring a strong understanding of the market, the competitive landscape and the nuances of senior hiring.

If you are hiring at CEO level, we would be happy to discuss your requirements.

Some of the roles that we specialise in recruiting include:

Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) Chief Operating Officer (COO) Chief Supply Chain Officer Managing Director (MD)
