Lead Recruiter - Interim & Fractional EMEA

TGRC is looking for a senior commercial leader to build and scale our Interim & Fractional Leadership business across EMEA, focused on the Energy, Infrastructure, Finance and Investment markets. This is a genuine build opportunity. TGRC has been trading for 16 years and has developed deep senior relationships across energy transition, infrastructure development, finance, investment, private equity, funds, platforms, developers and C-suite leadership teams. The clients are already here. The candidate network is already here. We now need someone who can bring the two together and build a high-performing interim business around it.

Working closely with the TGRC COO, you will help develop and launch a global interim brand, establish the go-to-market strategy, build the operating model, hire and lead a team, and grow a profitable practice across: Finance | Investment | Transformation | Strategy | Operations | Central Functions.

This role is ideal for someone who has operated successfully in interim, executive search, senior recruitment, consulting, or leadership advisory, and now wants the platform, brand, relationships and upside to build something significant.

You will lead the development of TGRC’s interim proposition across EMEA, leveraging our established client base, advisory network, senior candidate relationships and sector credibility. You will be responsible for building a commercially successful practice that places senior interim and fractional leaders into investors, infrastructure platforms, developers, funds, portfolio companies and scaling energy businesses. This is not a cold-start desk. TGRC already has trusted relationships across the market. The opportunity is to convert that access into a structured, scalable and high-margin interim business.

• Develop and execute the EMEA strategy for TGRC’s Interim & Fractional Leadership business.
• Work with the TGRC COO to shape the global interim brand, proposition, operating model and client strategy.
• Build relationships with investors, funds, developers, infrastructure businesses, portfolio companies and senior leadership teams.
• Convert TGRC’s existing senior contacts into interim and fractional mandates.
• Build, hire and lead a specialist interim team across Finance, Investment, Transformation and central functions.
• Develop candidate communities of senior interim leaders, fractional executives and transformation specialists.
• Create a repeatable sales, delivery and account management model for interim assignments.
• Partner with TGRC’s existing global teams to cross-sell interim solutions into established clients.
• Build a profitable, scalable business unit with clear revenue, margin and headcount growth.
• Represent TGRC externally as a senior market leader through events, content, networking and personal brand activity.

We are looking for someone entrepreneurial, credible and highly commercial. You may already be leading an interim practice, building a senior recruitment desk, working in executive search, or operating within a leadership advisory / consulting environment. You will likely have:

• A strong track record in interim, executive search, senior recruitment, consulting, or professional services.
• Experience selling to senior decision-makers, ideally across investors, infrastructure, energy, finance, transformation or corporate leadership.
• The ability to build trusted relationships with C-suite clients and senior interim candidates.
• A proven record of revenue generation and/or building a profitable team.
• A strong understanding of interim, fractional or project-based hiring.
• The ambition to build something bigger than a desk.
• The confidence to work closely with senior leadership and influence the direction of a growing business.

TGRC is a global recruitment and advisory business operating across the energy transition and infrastructure markets. Over the last 16 years, we have built deep relationships with senior leaders across finance, investment, development, engineering, construction, technology and transformation. This role offers the chance to take that platform and build a major new business line. You will have access to:

• An established global brand in energy and infrastructure.
• Deep senior relationships across clients, candidates, investors and developers.
• A highly engaged Advisory Council made up of industry leaders.
• A growing international business with offices and networks across key global markets.
• Direct support from the COO and senior leadership team.
• Full backing to build your team, personal brand and market presence.
• A genuine opportunity to participate in long-term value creation.

TGRC has a clear growth strategy and a potential sale / exit plan over the next 3–4 years. For the right person, this creates a real opportunity to secure a meaningful stake in the business and benefit from the value created through a future transaction.

This is a role for a builder. Someone who can take an established platform, strong relationships and a clear market opportunity, then turn it into a scalable interim business. The clients are there. The candidates are there. The brand is there. We need someone who can build the team, own the market, and put the two together.
