Since 1989

Founded in 1989, we built our reputation helping Microsoft, Oracle and other global software pioneers establish their first Danish operations — back when "digital" was still a frontier.

Three decades on, the frontier has shifted again. We've followed the digital agenda from enterprise IT through SaaS and cloud, and now into the AI era — placing the leaders, engineers and researchers who turn applied AI into real business advantage. Same focus, sharper edge.

The roles we fill

From boardroom to deep specialist.

For more than 35 years, executive search within digital and technology has been our world — nothing else. The model below shows where we play: leadership, commercial and digital/tech/AI talent, placed again and again across the companies shaping the digital economy.

GlobeSearch consultants in conversation around the meeting table

The future calls for generalists with a good understanding of digital, AI and data.

Leadership · Commercial · AI / Tech

As AI automates and reshapes most roles, the future calls less for the pure specialist and more for people who understand all three worlds — leaning into more tech one day, more leadership or commercial edge the next. These are exactly the people we have built our network around through more than 35 years of unwavering focus on the digital.

Our methodology

GlobeSearch Connected
Methods (GCM).

Anyone can present a polished process. But every executive search succeeds or fails on the same two questions: do you actually know the right people, and will they pick up the phone?

We've built our entire model around answering both with yes — three connected stages, nine deliberate steps, one reliable outcome: the right hire, presented within six weeks of an approved profile.
