We are pleased to report that as CJPI closes its financial year, we do so with 30 percent year-on-year growth, reflecting increased demand for Leadership Advisory, Executive Search, and M&A and Consulting support, despite a challenging macro-economic backdrop.
Across the year, more organisations have sought joined-up advice spanning leadership and strategy. This has shaped much of our work, from search assignments and M&A projects to diligence and integration support for investors and founder-led businesses.
Leadership Advisory continued to develop, and our executive search activity saw a rise in retained mandates across the UK and Europe, including a CEO search for a global cosmetics business operating in more than 50 countries.
M&A Advisory also gathered pace, supporting clients with exit strategy, deal origination, diligence and post-deal activity.
Clients have highlighted the value of an approach that connects leadership insight with broader organisational goals. This perspective has guided our work throughout the year and will continue to shape how we support organisations navigating growth, transition and investment decisions.
As we move into our new financial year and into 2026, we are continuing to invest in our team, analytics and technology so we can broaden our capabilities and maintain the standard of advice clients expect.
