About us

A partner’s judgement,
the reach of AI

BGS Headhunters is an executive search boutique founded by three partners, with a presence in Spain and Florida and a network of independent sector advisors. We have completed dozens of searches across renewable energy, real estate development, construction, infrastructure, logistics and trading, finance, marketing and communications, foundations and legal, with a success rate above 90%.

We work every mandate from start to finish, backed by our own AI system that multiplies the reach of every search and by advisors who technically vet each finalist.

Success fee only

No retainers, no upfront payments: we only get paid when you hire our candidate.

100% partner-led

The person who sells the search is the person who runs it.

Our own AI

Over a year building a system that scans, scores and filters thousands of profiles per search.

Sector advisors

Active experts in each industry technically interview the candidates.

Our AI system

We don’t search where everyone does,
we search everywhere

We have spent over a year building and refining our own fleet of AI agents covering the whole sourcing cycle: scanning, evaluation and prioritisation of candidates. It is not an off-the-shelf tool: it is ours, and it gets better with every search.

01

It scans

The AI gathers all the public information on thousands of candidates per search, not just LinkedIn: trade press, corporate websites, registries, conference talks and sector publications.

02

It evaluates

Every profile is checked one by one against the exact criteria of the mandate drawn from the JD (years of experience and career progression, location, level of responsibility, current role, sector and company size, track record and stability, sector fit, team managed, compensation, red flags, bonus points for an MBA, technologies used, academic background, languages, achievements…) and receives a substantiated score.

03

It analyses

The system weighs each candidate’s fit for the role quickly and accurately, and cross-checks it against our internal database. The score is never final: it tells us who to call first and lets us reach the right profile before our competitors do.

No candidate reaches your desk without a partner having interviewed them personally for your specific mandate and checked their references.
