Holly Welstead is an Associate in the TMT practice at Odgers Berndtson, recruiting senior executives and board directors for Technology Media and Telecommunications organisations across Europe, the US and Asia. She has a particular focus on media, working with both traditional and new media organisations. She also has a strong track record in private equity and venture capital for both early stage and mature portfolio businesses.
Prior to joining Odgers in January 2007, Holly worked as a Researcher in the Media, Entertainment and Convergence practice at Russell Reynolds Associates in London. She started her career in executive search with an investment banking boutique in the City. Holly holds a BA in French and Russian from Nottingham University and a MA in Translation from the University of Westminster.
A magnet for talented young people, the essential element in success in the media & entertainment business is securing senior executives who have the vision, energy and acumen to make the right decisions.
In technology, with apparently boundless application and insatiable markets, it is the human factor - leadership - that differentiates the stellar successes from the rest.
