Throughout, McLean embraced a highly collaborative approach to not only ensure in-depth assessment of candidates, but also that candidates developed a good understanding of the culture of our organisation. We would most certainly consider using McLean again in the future.

Vice Chancellor, UK University

The McLean Partnership understand Aerospace and Defence and also importantly build close relationships with the people they are looking to place, thereby making the candidate feel as if they have support during the recruitment and placement process.

Managing Director, Aerospace & Defence

The McLean Partnership is not a run of the mill recruitment company which just relies on a standard approach and a static inventory of potential candidates.

Chairman, Enabling Software Solutions

The end result provided us with a highly experienced special advisor – exactly to our specification. I would have no hesitation in working with The McLean Partnership for future executive searches.

Head of Policy, Foreign Government

The team is incredibly driven and hardworking with strong attention to structured and collaborative processes and a sound sense of continuous urgency. I would certainly use the McLean Partnership again for any future recruitment requirements.

Managing Director, Multinational Construction & Development Company

The McLean team have been very approachable, whilst maintaining professionalism at all times. They took time to work with us, providing professional, neutral and unbiased service throughout the entire recruitment process.

Managing Director, Multinational Construction & Development Company

The Partners at McLean have consistently provided high quality solutions to our business needs in a professional and timely manner, across both their Search and Interim Practices. They have taken time to understand both our business and requirements. I would highly recommend the team at McLean.

CEO, Major Transport Operator

The McLean team have been a key recruitment partner for us since 2009. Their detailed appreciation of both the ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ side adds weight to their advice and has ensured we have made numerous successful senior hires. They are a trusted long term partner.

Head of European Equity Research – Global Investment Bank

Paul secured us an interim CIO and he was outstanding at securing an excellent person. I worked with McLean later on building and recruiting an entirely new senior management team for the IT service at Surrey. I recommend Paul wholeheartedly and would undoubtedly use him again.

COO, University of Surrey

I would recommend them to anyone seeking senior staff in the Aerospace and Defence sector. Certainly if I was looking to recruit into senior roles in my current organisation I would look no further and would use them.

Managing Director, Aerospace & Defence

The interview process took longer than expected but that was due to the very high quality and calibre of persons presented. This is a credit to the McLean Partnership, their knowledge of the market place and the ability to match our candidate brief and requirement.

President, Aerospace & Defence OEM

It was essential that we worked with an executive search agency who have a good understanding of the Aerospace industry and have an established network of contacts. Having worked successfully with The McLean Partnership on another senior level assignment, they were the natural choice.

President, Aerospace & Defence OEM

The team from McLean impressed with their early focus on understanding our needs as a client and proved to be highly responsive to our needs as they evolved throughout the commission.

Head of Policy, Foreign Government

I have been involved in both executive and non-executive appointments for some years and the process McLean delivered with us was excellent. I would certainly recommend you to others and hopefully we can work together again in the future.

Chairman, Industry Research Body

The McLean Partnership were responsible for placing me in my current Managing Director level position in January 2012 after 28 years in my previous role. I found the way in which the process was carried out to be exemplary.

Managing Director, Aerospace & Defence

The McLean Partnership stands out as an organisation that not only says it can meet [your] requirements, but actually delivers on them. There is a demonstrable depth of sector expertise and capability within the McLean Partnership.

Commercial Director, Multinational Aerospace, Defence and Security

McLean have successfully delivered on all appointments we have tasked them with searching for and are an excellent advocate for our business. They are never afraid to give honest and clear advice. It’s a trusted and highly valued relationship based on shared success.
