Every engagement model. One standard.
Interim. Project. Permanent. Retained. K&A delivers senior talent with the same precision regardless of how you need to engage.
Quality is not a service tier. It is the baseline.
K&A was built on a refusal to treat talent placement as a numbers game. Every service we offer operates from the same starting point: deep understanding of what you actually need, followed by an honest assessment of whether we can deliver it.
We work with a curated network of senior independent consultants, verified through direct conversation and reference. When we put someone forward, we stand behind them. When we take on a brief, we see it through.
The result is a firm you can brief once and trust to get it right.
Four ways to engage. All built for senior talent.
Whether you need someone in place next week or a confidential search for your next leadership hire, K&A has the model to match.
Interim Placement
Senior capability, deployed fast. We place proven consultants into your organisation for a defined period, typically three to twelve months. No lengthy recruitment process. No long-term obligation.
- Typical tenure: 3 to 12 months
- Start within 1 to 2 weeks of brief
- K&A handles all contract and commercial terms
- Suitable for leadership gaps, project surges, and transitions
Project Assignment
A specific outcome, a defined scope. We match consultants with the precise expertise your project requires, for the duration of the engagement. Scoped, structured, and accountable.
- Fixed-scope or milestone-based engagements
- Single consultants or small specialist teams
- Disciplines: strategy, technology, finance, operations
- Deliverable-focused from day one
Permanent Recruitment
When you want someone to stay. We apply the same rigorous vetting to permanent roles, because the cost of a wrong hire is far higher than a placement fee. You receive a shortlist, not a pipeline.
- Typically two to three candidates presented
- Full reference verification before submission
- Senior and executive level roles
- Nordics and GCC markets
Retained Search
For confidential or leadership-critical roles. We work exclusively on your behalf with full transparency, dedicated resource, and a structured process from brief to close. No contingency. No shortcuts.
- Exclusive engagement, structured in three phases
- Weekly progress reporting throughout
- Suitable for C-suite, board, and confidential briefs
- Guaranteed shortlist within agreed timelines
The same process, applied to every brief.
Regardless of which service you engage, every K&A assignment follows a consistent methodology. It is how we maintain quality at pace.
We start with a direct conversation. Not a form. We listen to what you actually need, not just what is written in a job description.
Our curated network is the first port of call. If the right person is not there, we reach further with precision and discretion.
Every candidate is assessed and referenced before you see their name. We verify track records, not just credentials.
You receive a focused shortlist of two to three people. Each one is a genuine recommendation, not a hedge against uncertainty.
We handle all commercial terms, contracts, and onboarding coordination. You focus on the work from day one.
We remain available throughout. If the assignment evolves, we adapt. Long-term relationships matter more to us than single transactions.
Three markets. Built from the ground up.
K&A is not a global generalist. We operate in markets we know personally, with consultant networks built over years, not assembled on demand.
This depth means faster placements, better fits, and fewer surprises for the organisations we serve.
K&A's home market. The deepest consultant relationships, the longest client history, and the strongest track record in senior independent placement across Stockholm and beyond.
A growing market for K&A with strong demand across strategy, finance, and technology leadership. Copenhagen-based clients and a consultant network that spans the Oresund region.
UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the broader GCC region. Fast-growing demand for senior independent talent, with K&A well positioned to place Nordic consultants into GCC engagements.

We will tell you honestly whether we can deliver it, and how.
