Search Firm
Anyone can hire an executive. But not everyone can hire the right one
How We Work
That’s why we created our native-AI and human-driven hiring platform, where our AI powers every stage of the search – from sourcing, to shortlisting candidates and assessment – we start where others finish.
Rethinking Executive Hiring
For years, companies have hired executives based on experience and intuition. We believe that true leadership success goes beyond impressive resumes and polished interviews.
The result? Misalignment, costly turnover, and stalled growth.

Traditional search was built a century ago. We’ve built an approach designed for the pace and complexity of modern business.

Kingsley Gate Digs Deeper
Our proprietary IGNYTE Intelligence forms the backbone of everything we do, shaping every stage of the hiring lifecycle – from the first search to the final offer. It’s been built and refined over more than a decade, drawing on 25 years of global leadership data, to uncover the decision-making DNA that drives leaders.
We understand not just what candidates have done, but how they think, decide, and lead – we find the best, not just the available.
