“MTI selected Intramezzo because of its impressive candidate database, contacts and knowledge of the venture and growth ecosystem; and not least because of the quality of its leadership and executives. Intramezzo delivered a strong list of potential CEO candidates to a tight specification. This was done very efficiently, within 8 weeks, in less time than we expected and we were kept well-briefed throughout. Communications were swift, accurate and effective. We are delighted with the outcome and believe that we have a world-class candidate now in place.”

“We had an urgent need for a C-Level sales and marketing professional so we asked Intramezzo to find us an interim. Ideally, we wanted someone with a background in aerospace, who was also highly entrepreneurial, but we knew this mix would be hard to find. Intramezzo provided us with a shortlist of four credible candidates after a few days, all fitting the brief. They exceeded our expectations by finding us a candidate who was not only highly entrepreneurial but had direct experience of our market, having worked for a similar company in the US. We appointed him as an interim on a six month project and, due to his considerable success in the role we offered him the role of permanent CEO. This was the ideal outcome for us. We were impressed with the process and that Intramezzo was able to find such an outstanding candidate who has already had a significant positive impact on our business.”

"This is a quick note to anyone planning on using Intramezzo, we recently worked with them on an assignment to find a new Chairman for one of our fast growing companies. Two of the shortlisted candidates that they found were so outstanding that we ended up offering both a position."

“One of our primary investors recommended Intramezzo to handle an urgent and key interim sales appointment and I’m so delighted they did. Not only did they field an excellent shortlist of potential candidates – all of whom were extremely close fits to the role, but they also provided it in a remarkably quick time. Throughout the process they efficiently organised the interview process, met all deadlines and finally delivered an excellent candidate who has already proved his worth. They have also shown extreme professionalism post appointment by their regular calls to ensure that all is proceeding as expected and I have no doubt that it will not be long before I am approaching them again on another assignment. An excellent job.”

"We gave Intramezzo a very difficult assignment to build an international advisory board in an emerging sector. They very efficiently presented a number of suitable candidates. This Advisory Board initiative played a significant part in delivering 200% CAGR in the destination markets. High level input into our corporate growth strategy, coupled with the tactical input in the form of key decision maker introductions – meant that this initiative has been an outstanding success from the outset. Intramezzo has proved itself to be a valuable and dependable partner in delivering these international precision search services.”

“This was a text book corporate venturing build and exit made possible by the CEO and his team. The executive search firm briefed to find the CEO for this formative appointment was the London based firm – Intramezzo.”

"Given Intramezzo’s involvement in my own introduction to Eykona, I had experienced their approach first-hand and had been suitably impressed. When the requirement arose for us to add to our leadership team, I knew that Intramezzo had the credentials to deliver. That trust was not misplaced and we now have a COO on board that has already had a significant impact on the business and our ability to meet our growth targets. I believe this is testament to their expertise, reach and methodology."

"For a venture backed company, the quality of the team and the way they work together are two of the most crucial success factors. For those of us at the earliest stages, finding those few who really can bend reality and build a new future can be an exceptionally tough job. Everyone says hire A players, but with help from Intramezzo - we actually do it. Intramezzo worked very closely with us to shape the brief and gain a deep understanding of our unique company culture, then continued to work alongside us to get the best results - and fast. The fact that we were able to complete this search in its entirety in fewer than eight weeks is a real testament to Intramezzo’s thorough knowledge of the venture backed industry and their insights into the uniqueness of the people often required."
