CDO Executive Search

CHIEF DATA OFFICER

In today’s digital age, organisations across industries are rapidly mobilising to utilise and monetise data. Many companies are finding they need new technologies, business models and leaders who can help them harness their power and enlist the services of Chief Data Officers to drive value for their businesses by embracing their responsibilities as change-agents.

We collaborate with clients to attract CDOs from market-leading global centres to deliver hard-wired experience and expertise to our region dependent upon niche needs. In some organisations, risk, compliance and regulation may drive their role with a relatively narrow and deep focus. In others, their role may be much broader and inclusive of communicating a data vision as a critical part of growth strategy with C-Level colleagues, creating strategic data access policies, developing and executing a central data strategy to drive revenue, plus overseeing data governance, data investment and partnerships. Regardless, there are few roles that are evolving as exponentially as that of today’s CDOs.

“The Johnson Partners team worked with PAG Asia Capital and the Board of Craveable brands on the appointment of our current CEO. The process was rigorous and the level of communication was far beyond our expectations. The appointee has quickly made a positive impact and driven material change across the team. The breadth and quality of the process, and the candidates that the team were able to rapidly bring to the table were outstanding.”

  • SUCCESSION PLANNING & MARKET MAPPING

    While an organisation may have a binder full of names, when a ‘succession event’ occurs, it is often unplanned. When done properly, passing on the baton barely causes a ripple. Prudent leaders begin the process almost from day one, starting with an assessment of their teams

  • LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT

    A board can only feel confident that they have the right team in place to execute their corporate strategy if they objectively evaluate their leadership team.

  • DUE DILIGENCE

    The difference between a smooth merger or a stumble is leadership, and the difference between good leadership and under performing leadership is due diligence. During critical business change, we partner with clients to manage unforeseen risks involving incumbent executives, as well as prospective appointments.

  • GROWTH SOLUTIONS

    We work closely with our clients to identify realistic growth options, managing transactions through to completion. Our extensive network of contacts enables a secure and structured progression journey, especially during periods when a firm is expanding rapidly and a number of new hires are coming on board.

    Ensuring candidate accuracy, our 30-Day Audit™ is administered by an independent partner to review the progress of each candidate search during the critical middle stage of the recruitment process. During this period, we customarily receive confirmation that we are successfully executing our strategic plan. When required, we accept suggestions regarding how to redirect the search strategy to ensure optimum success.
