Through the longstanding membership of some of our Partners, Grosvenor Clive & Stokes has a close relationship with acumen7, a network of over 25 highly experienced senior executives and independent consultants with backgrounds in the Construction, Infrastructure, Transport, Energy and Engineering sectors. Our active participation in the network provides Grosvenor Clive & Stokes with deep insight into the key issues emerging in our sectors and access to specialist skills to assess and validate technical criteria, where appropriate, in our search projects.

The acumen7 network comes together to offer its skills and experience to help businesses and other organisations solve the challenges of development and change. The purpose of acumen7 is to share and debate ideas; to develop leading-edge thinking; to innovate, and to explore and develop joint business opportunities.

Through our active participation in the network, Grosvenor Clive & Stokes further develops its understanding of the issues facing its core markets and plays an active part in supporting the development of early-stage businesses or those in transition.

  • Providing access to the collective knowledge and experience of those in the network.
  • Extending our contact base to the networks of relationships of other acumen7 members.
  • Broadening our understanding of businesses operating in the Construction, Infrastructure, Transport, Energy and Engineering sectors.
  • Allowing us to ‘co-opt’ acumen7 members with specialist skills to support ‘technical’ aspects of our interviewing and assessment process.

All of these benefits allow us to deliver higher quality, more informed and thorough search assignments.
