Wild Search launches its 20th publication: on Portfolio Careers

Wild Search is delighted to announce the publication today of its third report on Portfolio Careers, Portfolio Planning: Insights from the Inside. Drawing on two earlier editions and with the addition of new subjects, the report provides a series of practical perspectives from those who have successfully taken this course in their own careers.

Chapters include: How to Begin?; Skills Required; Commercial and Charitable? And How to Influence and draw on 30 interviews with experienced men and women whose careers have encompassed chair and board roles within FTSE and private companies, charities and professional and trade bodies. Launching the report, its author Edward Wild said:

“This work is the culmination of both specific and broader research and encapsulates the observations which I have made over a decade and a half of headhunting and advising individuals and boards. However, critically, it is not merely my opinions but those of the people that have done it. As such, I hope it will inspire and inform those who are embarking on the variety and potential rewards which such as portfolio careers can provide.”

"Wild Search have been a pleasure to work with. From the way they helped develop the rather crude ideas we had of the candidate we were looking for to the production of a really strong field of contenders, Edward Wild and his team were attentive and efficient but with the lightness of touch that meant we never felt crowded. I also sense that unsuccessful candidates went away feeling good about the experience; surely the toughest test of a selection process." Sir Robert Fry, Chair, The Paddock Project
