The Cornhill Partnership, parent company to executive recruitment firms Archer Mathieson, Correlate Search, Euromedica and BIE Interim Executive, has appointed Nigel Guy as non-executive chairman.

Guy has held leadership positions with 3i, and was deputy managing director of Baird Capital Partners Europe. He currently holds board positions and is non-executive chairman of Northern Investors Company and FRP Advisory, a non-executive director of CLVC Group and is also a board member of the Corporate Finance Faculty of the ICAEW.

Cornhill chief executive Rob Walker says: “We took our time to find someone with real, heavy-hitting business experience; a chairman who could bring a fresh viewpoint from outside the recruitment sector. Nigel Guy fits that description perfectly.”
