What Clients Say

Trusted by hiring leaders and candidates across legal, finance, and governance.

"She has an uncanny ability to understand what the client needs, pick out, recommend, excite the candidate with the right fit and close the deal."

Mag H.

General Counsel, world-renowned European MNC

We build lasting partnerships with clients and candidates, constantly reassessing to help shape their needs.

We are an Asia-focused executive search and recruitment consultancy spanning legal in-house and private practice, finance, HR, corporate secretarial, risk, and compliance roles.

What makes us different

Alongside deep specialist networks, we use our in-house AI-driven Organisational Mapper to build a practical "hiring pattern view" of your organisation — based on public signals and past hiring outcomes we've seen across the market. This helps us provide:

  • •A clear snapshot of your hiring history (role types, seniority bands, practice areas, common trajectories)
  • •Commonalities of people you tend to hire (backgrounds, training, industry moves, tenure patterns)
  • •A forward-looking "likely hire" profile (what typically works in your environment, and where hires tend to succeed)
  • •Faster calibration — so the first shortlist is closer to what you would actually hire

In short: we can often tell you not just who is available, but who is most likely to land well in your organisation.

Specialized Recruitment Services

We focus on legal, finance, corporate secretariat, compliance/risk, and human resources recruitment—giving us deep industry knowledge and networks that general recruiters simply can't match.

Inhouse Legal Recruitment

Inhouse Legal Recruitment

From junior legal counsel to General Counsel, we connect legal professionals with Singapore's leading corporates, high-growth companies, and regional HQs.

  • Corporate & Commercial
  • Technology / Data / Privacy
  • Construction / Projects
  • Investigations / Regulatory

Why Nat and Nat Search

We don't "spray and pray." Our track record is built on targeted mapping of inhouse legal talent, fast access to passive candidates, and tight role-calibration with hiring managers so shortlists are credible, interview-ready, and aligned to business reality.

Private Practice Legal Recruitment

Private Practice Legal Recruitment

From junior associates to senior partners, we connect lawyers with Singapore's premier law firms and international practices.

  • Corporate / M&A
  • Banking & Finance
  • Capital Markets
  • Litigation / Arbitration

Why Nat and Nat Search

We understand what firms actually hire for—deal sheets, drafting ability, training, client fit, and practice needs. Our track record comes from deep law-firm networks and precise matching, resulting in smoother processes, fewer mis-hires, and higher offer acceptance rates.

Finance Recruitment

Finance Recruitment

Specialized placement services for finance professionals across investment banks, asset managers, private markets, and corporate finance functions.

  • Investment Banking
  • Asset Management
  • Private Equity
  • Corporate Finance

Why Nat and Nat Search

We speak the language of finance—mandates, products, investor types, and performance expectations. Our track record comes from high-signal screening and a network built around real hiring patterns, delivering candidates who can perform from day one, not just interview well.

Corporate Secretariat

Corporate Secretariat

Recruiting governance professionals who keep boards and companies compliant, organised, and investor-ready.

  • Corporate Secretaries / Assistant Company Secretaries
  • CoSec Managers / Head of CoSec
  • Entity Management / Board Governance Specialists
  • Corporate Services & Trust Administration

Why Nat and Nat Search

CoSec hiring is specialised—and we treat it that way. Our track record is built on knowing the difference between "paper filing" and true governance leadership, and on shortlisting candidates who can manage boards, stakeholders, deadlines, and regulators with confidence.

Executive Search

Executive Search

C-suite searches for legal, finance, and corporate services leadership roles across Asia-Pacific—discreet, targeted, and research-led.

  • CEO / CFO / COO
  • General Counsel / Chief Legal Officer
  • Chief Compliance Officer / Chief Risk Officer
  • Regional Heads / Country Managers / Practice Leaders

Why Nat and Nat Search

Executive search is about trust, discretion, and judgement. Our track record comes from research-led market mapping, credible outreach to senior leaders, and a structured assessment process that prioritises leadership fit, stakeholder alignment, and long-term impact—not just a "big name CV."

Human Resources

Human Resources

Connecting HR professionals who build performance, culture, and scalable people operations—from start-ups to regional enterprises.

  • HR Business Partners (HRBP)
  • Talent Acquisition / Employer Branding
  • Compensation & Benefits / Total Rewards
  • Learning & Development / HR Operations

Why Nat and Nat Search

We hire HR like operators, not buzzwords. Our track record comes from understanding what different organisations need at each stage—foundation-building vs. scaling—so you get HR talent that can execute, influence, and improve outcomes quickly.

Compliance & Risk

Compliance & Risk

Connecting compliance officers, risk managers, and regulatory experts with organisations navigating complex regulatory environments.

  • Compliance Officers
  • Risk Management
  • Regulatory Affairs
  • AML Specialists

Why Nat and Nat Search

Compliance and risk hiring is high-stakes. Our track record is built on careful calibration of regulatory scope, practical screening for real-world judgement, and access to candidates who can work with regulators and business teams without becoming a bottleneck.
