About Teneo People Advisory 

Teneo People Advisory is a global boutique offering executive search, board recruitment and advisory services. Our clients value our work because of the exclusivity of the relationship, our responsiveness, our discretion, and our track record of successful completion of assignments.

Teneo People Advisory UK, led by Sue O'Brien was formed through the acquisition of Ridgeway Partners in the UK and Teneo Talent in the US and APAC, and now includes more than 60 professionals across the globe. As part of our commitment to building a borderless search business, aligning our businesses to provide the very best service to our clients, and ensuring that we can attract and retain the best industry professionals, in June 2022 all three businesses came together under the Teneo People Advisory brand.
