Norman Consultants recruits leadership for indie and founder-led beauty brands — including the first outside hires that take a brand to the next level.
Indie and founder-led brands are where much of beauty's energy and innovation now live. As they scale, they reach the point of needing professional leadership — a first outside CEO, a commercial or operations leader — without losing the founder's vision. Getting those first senior hires right is decisive.
We recruit first outside CEOs, Presidents, and senior commercial, marketing, and operations leaders for emerging and high-growth beauty brands.
We define the brief and the realistic target universe across the indie beauty landscape.
We reach the operators who aren't looking — through a network built over years in beauty.
Rigorous, confidential assessment against the mandate, through to offer and onboarding.
Yes — including first outside CEOs and senior commercial, marketing, and operations hires for emerging, high-growth brands.
Usually when the business outgrows the founding team's bandwidth — often around scaling, professionalizing, or investment.
Yes — retained and confidential.
