Remuneration Benchmarking
Design a competitive compensation strategy and retain your best talent
Our consultants have access to a wealth of published remuneration data and we deploy this alongside market-based information compiled during the research processes in our recruitment and benchmarking activities. This high level intelligence can be mined to match your specific needs and provide you with vital insights to inform your talent acquisition and retention strategies.
Our depth of knowledge enables us to support our clients with very specific queries such as reporting on a particular executive’s remuneration compared with the market. But our breadth of knowledge also means we can prepare reports which benchmark an entire leadership team for both executive and non-executive roles.
Our global reach
FWB has recruited candidates in over 50 countries across the world, providing a truly global service. Some of our key placements are highlighted below.
Next/previous
Director of Operations

Given our comprehensive experience and track record within both the drinks and wider consumer good markets, Beam Suntory engaged FWB to identify a new Director of Operations to run its fully integrated distilling, bottling and distribution operation in Ireland. This newly created role was to assume responsibility for the development of all Irish whiskey production and the growth of the business unit for the Group. The search attracted a wide range of candidates in the UK, Irish and North American markets, with the successful candidate relocating to take up the post.
Head of India Operations

Having worked with Sky to recruit a number of key appointments throughout the UK within Customer, Sales, Digital and Operations, FWB were approached to carry out a global search for the appointment of the Head of Operations in India. The search included local, international relocation and remote based candidates with outsourced customer operations experience and a successful and diverse hire was made who has since been promoted into a new role within Sky.
Chief Scientific Officer
Kenya
With a strong track record in both Life Sciences as well as the Not for Profit Sector FWB was appointed to conduct a global search across Galvmeds key locations in Kenya, India and Scotland to recruit their next Chief Scientific Officer. A truly international search, including many of the top life sciences and animal health and vaccinology organisations, resulted in a diverse shortlist of candidates from 7 different countries and a successful appointment in Kenya being made.
CFO
Texas, USA
Working closely with energy technology private equity firm, Energy Ventures, FWB were tasked with appointing a CEO to lead their portfolio company, Morphpackers, through a significant phase of growth and subsequent exit.

Our search resulted in a successful appointment being made in Houston, Texas.
