Savannah, formerly known as Boyden UK, have left Boyden, the international executive search firm, to launch a new executive search and interim management business.

 Savannah states that it will focus on empowering business leadership teams and offering a better client and candidate experience.

“We’re offering a bespoke service, not trying to force a one size fits all solution on businesses that increasingly value a more modern, flexible way of working,” John Ellis, Managing Partner, Savannah, said. “Independent and more agile, Savannah believes it is well placed to deliver the tailored experience organisations are seeking, without clients having to compromise on quality or global reach.

Savannah will comprise of a new team of 50 staff. The staff will focus on Board and Corporate Functions, Financial Services, Hospitality Travel & Leisure, Industrial, Digital and Media Sport & Entertainment industries.

"Digitisation is forcing businesses in all industries and sectors to re-think their products and services and prioritise the customer experience,” Ellis said. “The executive search and interim industry has the opportunity to harness the power and potential of this to deliver an exceptional end-to-end experience.  Our understanding of our clients and their markets combined with our team's expertise and investment in technology is enabling us to deliver a unique, premium proposition at a time when companies are looking to work differently with their executive search and interim partners.”
