“Compass Carter Osborne provided an excellent service to Octopus Healthcare in our recent executive search for both a CEO and FD for our Rangeford retirement communities business. CCO offered a comprehensive package including expert advice and sector insight in framing the job roles and positioning the opportunity to attract an impressive field of candidates. In an incredibly competitive sector for the best talent CCO were able to bring the very best candidates to Rangeford and supported Octopus as an investor throughout the appointment and on boarding process.
