We partner with investors across the ecosystem to strengthen leadership capability, support succession and enable organisations to navigate growth and change with confidence.
Our approach blends data-driven search, market intelligence and a rigorous evaluation process, all underpinned by long-term relationships. This enables our clients to hire the right people, at the right time, building businesses for a sustainable future.
They built the firm around a partner-led search model grounded in genuine sector knowledge, clear communication and a disciplined, structured approach. From the outset, ODM was designed to operate at the pace of its clients, combining rigour with momentum and maintaining focus through every stage of the search.

While our methods continue to evolve with a changing market, certain elements remain consistent: clarity, considered insight and a commitment to outcomes that endure. These principles are reflected in the clients who return to us for senior appointments and trust us with critical leadership mandates.

Our Story

ODM Partners was founded by Adam O’Donnell and Ashley Morris, who each bring more than 16 years of experience advising infrastructure and energy investors across EMEA and Asia.
