Executive recruitment

We provide a bespoke recruitment service for key sports appointments.

We are recognised to be a leading authority in the industry.Our CEO, John Eady has supported a distinguished range of clients including the RFU, more than one quarter of England’s CSPs and local authorities (including Leeds City Council and Sandwell MBC) and professional clubs (including all 12 current Rugby Premiership clubs) to define management roles and recruit principal staff at CEO and director level.

The full service that we offer covers:

  • Job analysis and development of person specifications
  • Identifying and contacting suitable candidates – across the World
  • Advertisement, short-listing and interviewing.

KKP also provides support for induction programmes, coaching for successful candidates and those preparing to take up new appointments and subsequent related mentoring, support and challenge processes.

Some key jobs in sport are simply not like any other sector. ‘Generic’ skills are required but these must be applied and married to a genuine understanding and ‘feel’ for the role or the sport. Few, if any, in the field offer the combination of understanding, skill at defining and describing roles and tasks and the excellent range of formal and informal contacts that John brings to recruitment at CEO and director level....
