Our Services
Every mandate handled with the care it deserves.
Three distinct practices. One uncompromising standard.
Cortez Agency operates across three interconnected disciplines — each designed to serve a different moment in a luxury brand's leadership journey. Whether you are filling a critical vacancy, planning for succession, or rethinking your talent architecture, we bring the same depth of expertise and the same standard of discretion.
01
Executive Search
The right leader, found with precision.
Our core practice. We identify, approach, and place senior leaders — from Vice President to Chief Executive — within the world's most prestigious beauty and cosmetics brands. We do not post advertisements or rely on databases. We conduct original research, build genuine relationships, and present only candidates who meet an exacting standard.
02
Retained Search
Exclusive partnership for the most critical appointments.
For mandates that demand absolute focus and complete confidentiality, our retained practice offers an exclusive engagement model. We work with one client per search, dedicate our full resources to the mandate, and provide regular, transparent progress reporting throughout. This is the model chosen by the houses that cannot afford to get it wrong.
03
Talent Advisory
Strategic counsel beyond the placement.
Leadership is not just about the next hire. It is about the architecture of talent across the organisation. Our advisory practice works with boards, CEOs, and HR leadership to assess organisational design, identify succession risks, and build the talent strategies that will sustain a brand's ambitions over the long term.
