Executive Search

By hiring a Certified Executive Search Consultant, you benefit from our extensive and qualified experience from executive recruitments.

Recruiting managers and specialists

Executive Search is a structured method for executive recruitment. Ensuring high quality recruitments of executives requires extensive insight into private and public organisations combined with the ability to analyse the expertise and personalities of candidates.

In our Executive searches, we recruit managers and specialists to unique permanent positions. Our clients range from start-ups to listed companies and public sector organisations. The common denominator is that they are looking for leading expertise that can develop together with their organisation.

Inom vår Executive Search – verksamhet rekryterar vi chefer och specialister till unika fasta arbeten. Våra kunder är allt från entreprenöriella start-ups till börsnoterade bolag och offentlig sektor. Den gemensamma nämnaren är att de söker framtidens främsta kompetens som kan utvecklas tillsammans med dem.

Tomas Blomster is one of twenty-five certified Executive Search Consultants in Sweden.

My name is Tomas Blomster, and I am the founder of Besi. I have conducted numerous executive recruitments across Sweden—nearly 30 in the past year alone. With many years of experience as a hiring manager myself, I know that a successful recruitment process requires an experienced and dedicated executive search consultant.

That’s why I’m proud to be one of only 25 authorized Executive Search consultants in Sweden. This means I have been thoroughly reviewed by the independent ethics council of the ESK organization and deemed to maintain a high level of skill and suitability. ESK stands for ethics, quality, and competence in executive recruitment and is Sweden’s only professional association offering authorization within the Executive Search profession.

Today, almost anyone can call themselves a senior recruiter—regardless of their actual experience or expertise. But a successful recruitment process demands a consultant with both practical experience and a deep understanding of the private and public sectors, combined with the ability to assess individual competence and personality.

By choosing an authorized Executive Search consultant, you can be confident that your recruitment process will be of the highest quality—from the first meeting to the signed employment contract.
