Board Appointments

Neemar Search partnered with Great Places Housing Group on a 16-week project to appoint six new board-level members across the Customer, Development, and Care & Support Committees. The search required sector expertise and lived experience, supported by UK-wide talent mapping, hybrid meeting solutions, and multi-stakeholder coordination.

Chief Executive Officer, Notting Hill Genesis

"Following an unsuccessful round of recruitment for a new board member with specific skill sets, we approached Hannah at Neemar as they had been recommended to us. The service was exemplary as was the communication. Hannah listened to what we needed, offered well thought out and educated solutions and remained proactive and communicative throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again."
