James Kershaw-Naylor’s Experience

Senior Consultant

The Kaizen Partnership

(Privately Held; Banking industry)

June 2007 — Present (2 years 8 months)

The Kaizen Partnership is an independent search consultancy headquartered in London. With a reputation for exceptional client service and unrivalled research capabilities, we have focused on the world’s financial markets, specialising in technology and business mandates for the world’s premier investment banking and investment management firms.

The company was formed in 1999 with the aim of providing an innovative boutique service to a small number of financial clients.

I’m a key member of the infrastructure desk with a particular focus on Electronic Trading Support. Having read Philosophy at Bristol I joined Kaizen with a background in Business Development at a major FMCG. The consultative nature of the Kaizen approach is what appeals to me; the exceptionally high calibre of the candidates I work with ensures I keep my finger on the pulse of the market .My primary focus is the UK and Europe although I am currently involved on several searches with the Asia-Pacific desk.
