Rupert Reed
Founder & Managing Director
At the heart of Godliman Partners is a close-knit, committed team led by Rupert Reed and Sarah Rogerson, whose experience and shared ethos have shaped our approach since 2003. They are supported by consultants and researchers who bring a deep understanding of the asset management landscape.
We take a thorough, data-led approach to every search, combining structured evaluation with clear, open communication. This allows us to build shortlists that are credible, well-considered, and aligned to each client’s unique organisational requirements.

This coordinated approach brings consistency, balanced judgement, and the right specialist knowledge to each stage of executive search. We’re committed to reflecting the professional standards upheld across the industry, including those set by the Association of Executive Search and Leadership Consultants (AESC).
