Industry - Public

Clients and networks

During the last ten years, Alumni’s team focusing on politically-driven organisations and companies has acquired a considerable expertise and networks in areas such as:

 Trade associations
 Employers’ federations
 Non-profit organisations
 State- and municipal-owned companies
 Public administration

Expertise

Our team has personal deep experience from the interface between society and business. Several employees have served as leaders in non-profit organisations, trade associations and politically-driven business. We work broadly within the public sector, but our focus lies within executive search and board reviews. Most common in executive search is the recruitment of leaders such as General Managers, Presidents and Secretaries General.

The industry

We see an increased flow between the private and public sectors – which expands the available talent pool and benefits both sectors. Public sector companies and organisations often face the same challenges as the private sector in terms of leadership succession. That the activity at hand is democratically governed by members or politicians, however, adds extra complexity to leadership assignments within the public area.
