Celebrating 35 years in Leadership
2021 marked Saxton Bampfylde’s 35th anniversary, a milestone that we’re incredibly proud of. It has been an opportunity to reflect on the firm’s journey thus far, celebrate our commitment to our values, and to look ahead to the future. We created this short video as part of our celebrations.
Positively changing the future
The future of our society demands exceptional and diverse leaders who can demonstrate purpose and sustain change. Our global executive search and leadership advisory experts find and develop these leaders every day.
Our research-led and proven assessment techniques support our deeply embedded experience and collaborative approach to deliver the results our clients, and our society, are looking for.
Progressive partnership working
We work collaboratively across our client community to help their organisations and leaders grow and thrive. We are a true partnership business and understand why and how working together will deliver the best results.
We are proud of our heritage and even more so of how we continue to evolve, diversify and innovate. We can only do this with the support and confidence of our clients, the majority of whom return to work with us. We pride ourselves on being advisors to individuals and organisations for the long term – not just the duration of a search. Our business model and cultural purpose encourages a true investment from our Partners who want to achieve the best and make the biggest difference, time and time again.
Going further to
bring you more
We want to bring out the best – in candidates, in leaders and in our clients and their organisations. Our research-dedicated approach is relentlessly thorough and thoughtful, equipping our clients with the knowledge and assurance needed to make the right decisions about leadership.
Emboldening idea generation
We like to stay ahead of the curve and continuously encourage innovation, the sharing of ideas and experiences across our community. From award-winning diversity programmes, bespoke mentoring initiatives, thought leadership events to industry-specific insight reports we demonstrate our different approach to leadership.

Purpose and people at our heart
We put our purpose into practice every day in all that we do. We evolve our policies and commitments to support the needs and wishes of our people – not simply to follow the latest directives or business trends. Our environmental, social and governance policies are represented in five specific areas:
- Ethical business conduct
- Support of staff to fulfil their potential
- Contribution to wider society
- Fair employment practices
- Commitment to the environment and sustainability
In 2021, we were awarded the highest level award (Diamond) for the CAF Give As You Earn scheme. The award recognises and rewards organisations which fuel charities through payroll giving. Below are some of the charities our Partners have supported through the scheme.
