Job Description

At ODM Partners, we help shape the leadership teams driving the energy transition and infrastructure investment. As an Associate, you’ll play a key role in the search process, researching markets, engaging exceptional talent, and supporting the delivery of board and C-suite mandates.

If you’re a few years into your professional career and seeking more autonomy, pace, and tangible impact, this is an exciting opportunity to build a long-term career in a growing, purpose-driven sector.

What You’ll Do

• Research & map markets: build structured, insight-led talent maps and stay close to industry trends.
• Engage with candidates: lead first-round conversations, qualify motivations, and represent opportunities with confidence.
• Support delivery: organise interviews, capture feedback, and maintain clear communication throughout.
• Drive insight: keep our CRM accurate and use data to spot patterns and identify new opportunities.

What We’re Looking For

• 2–4 years’ experience in a professional environment (Big Four, consultancy, accountancy, law, or similar).
• Strong analytical skills, natural curiosity, and clear communication.
• A desire to work in a more entrepreneurial environment, where ideas are heard and ownership comes early.
• Commercially minded, organised, and able to balance detail with delivery.

Why ODM Partners

• A mature, delivery-focused culture: we operate on trust, not micromanagement. Success is measured by outcomes, not call time or KPIs.
• Early exposure: you’ll work closely with our Partners on live mandates and client projects from day one.
• Growth opportunity: as a scaling business, we offer genuine headroom to grow into an integral member of the team.
• Structured development: a clear pathway to Senior Associate and beyond, supported by training and mentorship.
• Collaborative culture: a team that’s ambitious but grounded, supportive, not hierarchical.
• Purposeful work: every search helps build leadership in the global energy transition.
