FAQs

Why choose specialist investor relations headhunters over a generalist search firm?

Investor relations is a niche function requiring unique skills in financial communication, stakeholder management, and market credibility. Specialist IR headhunters, like tml Partners, bring deep market knowledge, tailored search strategies, and access to passive candidates – ensuring you secure leaders who can inspire investor trust and deliver long-term value.

What is the typical process for an investor relations executive search?

At tml Partners, every search is bespoke. We begin with a detailed briefing to understand your business strategy, capital markets positioning, and cultural context. Our research team then maps the market at both a global and sector level, identifying proven IR leaders with the credibility to engage investors and analysts.

From there, we run a rigorous process — targeted engagement, structured assessment, and careful referencing — before presenting a shortlist of high-impact candidates aligned to your brief. This approach ensures you secure IR leaders who not only meet the technical requirements but also strengthen market confidence and long-term shareholder value.

How does your firm find talent for senior IR roles?

At tml Partners, we’ve built one of the most connected global communities of investor relations leaders. Through exclusive roundtables, forums, and thought leadership, we remain closely engaged with the IR community and understand the opportunities and challenges they face worldwide.

Combined with our targeted, research-led headhunting, this network gives us unrivalled access to high-impact talent — ensuring we can connect clients with IR leaders who bring credibility, market insight, and lasting value.

What kind of companies do you work with?

We partner with blue-chip businesses listed on stock exchanges around the world — including FTSE listed and Fortune 500 companies — as well as supporting organisations through critical pre-IPO stages. Our clients span all major sectors, united by the need for world-class IR leadership to strengthen investor confidence and market reputation.
