Clients
Eton Bridge Partners were not only a great team with excellent communication but delivered substantial client insight including an EMEA-wide view of HR trends across industries and executive levels. Both from a client and a candidate perspective, I whole-heartedly promote the team.
Viktor Kovacs Executive Chairman, Operational Board Member, InvestorThe Eton Bridge team successfully completed a CEO search for me. The location, sector and proposition, not to mention the very difficult current market dynamics, made this search more challenging. Yet the team remained resolute, determined and professional resulting in a very successful appointment.
Gary Browning Chairman, PE Backed AssetEton Bridge committed themselves wholeheartedly into helping us select a new NED, against a tight spec, working very closely with us to create a successful partnership.
