Immergex is a retained executive search practice built for CIOs, CTOs, GM, VP and Head of Sales-level appointments, and senior consulting leadership across Australia — led by a search partner who has sat on both sides of the hiring table, including inside global consulting at DXC.
Iain has spent 15 years in technology and consulting recruitment — building and running internal talent functions, leading search from the agency side, and working inside global consulting himself at DXC. That mix of vantage points shapes how Immergex operates: search that understands what a leader actually needs to succeed once they start, not just what a brief says.
Over that time, Iain has built a genuine network across the C-suite of technology in Australia, along with the GM, VP and Head of Sales-level leaders who sit around them and the senior consulting partners who advise them — giving clients access to leaders who aren't actively looking, and giving candidates a search process run with discretion and respect.
Iain's approach is deliberately consultative. He understands how pivotal a single appointment can be to a business's broader strategy — the right hire, or the wrong one, can materially shift where a company ends up — and he treats every search with that weight in mind. That network, and the platform Immergex is built on, runs on trust and integrity first: it's the reason senior leaders across the market engage with him directly, and it's what Iain prides himself on above all else.
Senior technology, consulting and commercial appointments carry a level of structural complexity that doesn't show up in a job description. Understanding that complexity — not just sourcing against a title — is what a genuine network and direct operating experience are for.
Immergex is built on relationships and referral — a network earned over 15 years across technology, consulting and senior commercial leadership, not a database cold-called on demand. Every mandate runs through the same disciplined process, regardless of seniority or sector.
Alongside search, Iain runs closed-door roundtables for CEOs, CFOs and CIOs — each session built around a different agenda and guest speaker, giving peers a platform to compare notes on the problems that rarely make it into a board pack: talent strategy, team structure, vendor pressure and the pace of change.
It's where Immergex's search work and its network reinforce each other: the relationships built in the room are often the same ones that produce a shortlist someone else can't reach.
