Our firm is wholly owned by our partners and we work as a truly integrated organization. Our “one firm” philosophy, together with our international Research Centre, ensures that our clients experience the same high-quality service and uncompromising commitment to fulfilling their needs.

We offer premium Executive Search, Board Search and Leadership Assessment services for clients ranging in size from large to smaller companies and start-ups. We work across industries from consumer products, technology, and industrial machinery and equipment to construction and building materials, and we perform assignments for our clients in both the parent company and in subsidiaries.

Friis International specializes in identifying, assessing and recruiting outstanding leaders who have shown remarkable results. Our success lies in our ability to understand the needs of our clients and in our in-depth experience in assessing candidates.

More than 20 years of experience in assessing and recruiting high-performing leaders have proved that our policy of utmost discretion in our external dealings and openness in our internal communication delivers the best results for everyone concerned. A professional and discreet approach ensures the need of our clients and candidates for confidentiality.

Friis International identifies and attracts the best candidate for a given key management position – a person who can develop and leverage the strengths and resources of the company, and who also understands and values its philosophy and culture.

Over the years we have developed a highly refined research capability to build and enhance our in-depth market intelligence, which we believe is the key to a rapid and successful result.

Our extensive database comprises leadership candidates with outstanding track records who possess the professional and personal potential to handle responsible positions and ensure success.

Our focus is on candidates characterized by a high level of energy and commitment, who adapt easily to new conditions in a constantly changing world. This is why our clients place their confidence in us for quick and successful search solutions.

We stress the value of lasting relationships with our clients that build on a deep understanding and successful fulfilment of their individual needs. As a result, more than two-thirds of our business comes from existing or referred clients.

We create value for our clients by providing a quality service and always placing our clients’ interests above everything else.
