experience the difference
It is our vision to be a tier one local company competing at the highest level within executive and board search within Australia, respected for the quality and expertise of our principals, the relationship with our clients and potential candidates, and our transparent and effective pricing philosophy.
We also seek to work closely and in partnership with both clients and strategic organizations locally and internationally, beyond the immediate issues of search and recruitment, taking into account the significant hands-on expertise in business management which we can offer to our clients, thereby deepening our relationship and our potential business breadth.
“McLean Kerrigan Jackson has worked closely with Alcatel at a time when change is the most significant element we have to manage within our organization, and on behalf of our clients.

“Early in 2004, I directed the integration of Fujitsu and DMR to bring about an effective new organisation best suited to the customer and market conditions in Australia and New Zealand. I greatly appreciated the support I obtained from MKJ in bringing the merger of two great teams to fruition, with an infusion of new talent from the best in the market. MKJ was quick, flexible and responsive, producing excellent results.”

small firm - big results
MFJ Partners executive search offers the collective experience and expertise of its three principals across a broad range of managerial fields, combined with a deep understanding of executive search and related services.

value for money
Our pricing structure does not involve minimum fees or the miscellaneous disbursements and floating charges that often discourage search firms from negotiating the best value remuneration outcomes for their clients. With MFJ Partners, the client can plan with full confidence that the eventual cost will be what is agreed in advance. We provide first class service without the high cost overheads and charges of our larger competitors. We are competitive with the second tier firms on price, but way ahead in terms of quality and performance.
