Trusted by leading AI and technology companies

Full talent access with no restrictions and 50% more candidates than competing firms. Partner-led search for senior AI and tech roles.

The largest search firms are barred from recruiting out of their own client rosters, which quietly removes thousands of executives from your shortlist. Christian & Timbers carries no such conflicts. Every qualified candidate in the market is on the table, and a senior partner, never an associate, owns your search from kickoff to close.

Why Companies Choose Christian & Timbers

Choosing a search firm usually means choosing between reach and attention. As C-suite search experts focused on AI and technology, Christian & Timbers offers both: the network of a global firm and the accountability of a boutique.

Clients who come to us as an AI executive search firm work directly with partners who have placed Chief AI Officers, CTOs, Chief Scientists, and heads of research at both AI-native startups and global enterprises.

An executive search partner should bring zero conflicts to your mandate. Because our client base is focused, no off-limits list shrinks your candidate pool, and every shortlist reflects the full market rather than whatever remains of a crowded roster.
