Our Vision

tml Partners is an award-winning executive search firm and an international leader in global marketing, commercial, and strategy appointments.

We are proud to have become one of the first executive search firms to achieve B Corp certification, underscoring our commitment to building the world’s most trusted marketing headhunters, balancing profit with purpose.


This Opportunity

As a result of our rapid international growth, we are seeking a Research Associate or Senior Associate to work on board-level and senior leadership projects across the UK, Europe, and North America. This role supports the creation of a world-class centre of excellence for global executive search.


You will partner with our Global Commercial Director and Senior Leadership Team on business development strategies, client and candidate research, and executive relationship management. Your responsibilities will include:


  • Executive Search Project Management: Collaborating on search strategies, research, and candidate development.
  • Research & Client Development: Conducting industry and company research to map executive talent, particularly Chief Marketing, Revenue, and Commercial Leaders across growth industries for tml Partners.

  • DEI Initiatives: Working with our Diversity Committee to deliver anonymised questionnaires and provide demographic reporting within candidate processes.

  • Relationship Management: Build a future pipeline and community network of key influencers and advocates to support in future search projects and new business opportunities.


About You

We’re looking for a self-starter with exceptional relationship-building skills, attention to detail, a first-class communicator adapted to working across multiple geographies and cultures, and above all a passion for customer service.


Our culture is high-performance yet autonomous, embracing the latest technology to support flexible working. Whether working remotely or from our London office, self-motivation and drive are key.


Essential skills and experience include:


  • A proven track record in executive search, project management, or research.
  • Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to interpret market trends.
  • Exceptional relationship-building and networking abilities.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the capability to present complex information clearly.


We welcome applications from a diverse range of sectors and backgrounds, and an interest in or experience across marketing or commercial management as a research or search discipline is advantageous, but by no means essential.


Flexible Working Options

We support full-time and part-time working arrangements, with opportunities for remote or hybrid working to suit your lifestyle.


Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are central to our business and client solutions. We are committed to breaking down systemic barriers for under-represented talent—as well as the many business benefits for companies, it is the right thing to do


Our initiatives, such as the UK National Diversity Survey and The CMO Report, help raise awareness and drive meaningful change across the industries we serve.


In 2020, we launched The Tomorrow Foundation, focusing on improving social mobility and creating fairer futures. We dedicate 5% of our time to pro bono and charitable work, making a tangible impact in the communities we serve.


Join us at tml Partners and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of global executive search.
