Accelerant was founded as an independent consultancy in January
2004 by Director Graham Thomson.
The Talent Management practice was then established in May 2005
by Director Sally Thomson, an experienced Consultant with 17 years
experience in industry and Executive Search. Sally specialises in
helping clients to improve their resourcing practices and in helping
them to shape their people strategy, thereby ensuring that they
have the very best Talent in the market place both now and in the
future.
Sally has a successful track record of recruiting at the most senior
levels in the Consumer Goods industry, as well as some specific
vertical market specialisms. Having recruited for most functional
areas, Sally has gained significant experience and success at helping
clients to consolidate their thoughts around the skills and set
of behaviours that define high achievers in an organisation. She
has subsequently gone on to help these clients build their people
capability by providing strategies for attracting and developing
the very best individuals.
