About

We are dedicated to bringing exceptional people and organisations together — exceptionally well.

Our Values

Search is all about the most important asset — people. Our genuine interest in the people we work with drives us to create lasting connections and build on existing relationships.

We value ingenuity, empathy, individuality and an appetite for discovery. These values underpin our entire approach. We believe clients and candidates should be treated with equal transparency and respect, particularly as many candidates become clients and vice versa.

Dohnt & Co are great ambassadors for our business — they are our first touch point to talent. They know us as well as we know ourselves and this builds trust through its authenticity. The result? They know our future leaders when they meet them.

Represent

the client, viewing the entire search process as if through their eyes

Discover

client needs and confirm search strategy

Identify

engaging great leaders based on client-specific criteria

Assess

candidates through an informative, rigorous due diligence cycle

Calibrate

on-job performance, supporting with leading insights and feedback

Our Difference

At Dohnt & Co we are focussed on one thing: exceptional search. We offer a highly personalised service with expert functional and industry knowledge. Our aim is bringing great leaders together — not asking clients and candidates to serve our own global growth agenda.

We are deliberately agile and responsive in our approach, and treat each individual assignment on its own unique merits. As a client, you’ll benefit from knowing that your point of contact throughout the search process is the same person who is leading the search. As a candidate, you’ll be kept informed at each stage of the search, and will benefit from our open, honest feedback.

We leverage our extensive relational network to delve deeply into the right talent pools. Our exhaustive screening and rigorous selection processes ensure we’re able to present the best and most appropriate candidates, based on what they can contribute to your future success. We believe in treating everyone with equal respect — this in turn has allowed us to develop mutual trust and loyalty with many of our candidates and clients.
