A practical, no-fluff guide to positioning yourself on LinkedIn as a senior leader — what recruiters actually search for, and how to turn your profile into a channel that works for you.
Most executive profiles read like static resumes — invisible to search, forgettable to the human who finally lands on them.
Executive search has moved onto LinkedIn. Search firms and in-house recruiters now spend the majority of their sourcing time on the platform, often before a role is even posted publicly. If your profile is not surfacing in their searches, you do not exist as a candidate.
The leaders who get the call are not always the most qualified ones. They are the ones whose profiles are findable, current, and convincing in the first ten seconds. This guide is the playbook for getting your profile into that bracket.
A guide built from the recruiter's seat — the way executive search firms actually source.
Directors and above actively in transition. You want to be found by the right search firms and to turn outreach into real conversations.
Passive candidates. You are not job hunting — but you want to be visible to opportunities that match where you are headed.
Founders and operators building a brand. You want a personal profile that drives credibility, deal flow or speaking opportunities.
Executives whose profile lags their seniority. Your LinkedIn does not reflect the calibre of the work you actually do — and you know it.
