Managing Director
Senior Partner, MENA
Managing Partner
We didn't turn up for this moment. We were already here.
We've been operating across the Gulf long enough to know how decisions actually get made here, not how the org chart says they get made.
Direct relationships with the decision-makers inside public and semi-public institutions. Not a cold introduction from a database.
Major stakeholders across defence, finance, energy and technology trust us with their most sensitive searches.
Same standard of relationship and follow-through, whether the mandate is a leadership search or an AI market entry.
Two offices in Australia mean our reach goes well past the Middle East, for clients who are building across both regions.
Organisations keep coming back to Cresco because the relationship outlasts the mandate. That's really the whole model.
Leadership for banks, asset managers and regulated institutions across the region.
Executive search for the payments, digital banking and lending platforms scaling here.
Leadership benches for the traditional and transitional energy majors of the region.
Partners and practice leaders for advisory, legal and consulting firms.
Commercial and operating leadership for regional and international retail brands.
Leadership for the hotel groups, developers and destination projects reshaping the region.
Commercial representation for AI companies who need a foothold in the region that actually works.
Leadership search inside organisations where the margin for a wrong hire carries national consequence.
Building the leadership benches behind the region's fastest-growing sporting economies.
Whether you're building a leadership team or growing your AI company's footprint across the region, the first conversation starts the same way. Tell us what you're trying to grow.
