MacDonald | Kinnaird
About Us
Douglas Kinnaird was involved in the establishment of
executive search in Scotland in the 1980's.
The most important aspect of recruiting for difficult
assignments
is the ability to gain a rapid and comprehensive grasp of
our
client's business. With over 25 years senior recruitment
experience
Douglas' ability to identify the salient aspects, the skills
required
and his knowledge of where and how to tap into those sources
of
talent is considered by many as uncanny.
Prior to establishing MacDonald Kinnaird in 1995 Douglas was the London based Managing Director of UK Recruitment for the world's largest HR consultancy. He is a director and Governor of the Glasgow School of Art and numerous internationally focussed trade and cultural organisations. It therefore goes without saying that his active London and international network is without parallel.
He is a business and marketing graduate. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant with KPMG. His management experience prior to consulting covers a range of sectors, industries and types of company and he has lived and worked in New Zealand and Libya plus London on several occasions.
