What Alcott Global does

Alcott Global is a Singapore-headquartered, global executive search and leadership advisory firm founded in 2019, operating under the legal entity Alcott and Robson Singapore Pte. Ltd. The firm specializes exclusively in placing C-suite and board-level leaders across the end-to-end value chain — covering supply chain, manufacturing, procurement, logistics, operations, and e-commerce — for Fortune 500 enterprises and local conglomerates. Geographic coverage spans North America, Europe, APAC, Middle East & Africa, Latin America, and now South Asia following a 2025 India expansion. The firm is led by Group CEO Radu Palamariu, with regional Managing Directors for Europe/USA and South Asia, and has been retained by named enterprise clients including Maersk, Schneider Electric, Colgate, BD, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Dell Technologies, Ecolab, Danone, and Siemens.

The core service is retained executive search engagements spanning CEO and board succession, supply chain executive placement, manufacturing leadership, procurement leadership, and operations leadership. Underpinning the core search practice is a content and community ecosystem that functions as a top-of-funnel brand and candidate sourcing engine: three podcast series (Leaders in Supply Chain and Logistics, Leaders in Tech and E-commerce, Leaders in Supply Chain Talent), annual research publications including the Supply Chain Leadership and Tech Trends Report, articles, infographics, and a co-authored book by the CEO titled 'From Source to Sold – Stories of Leadership in Supply Chain'. The community is formalized through the annual Leaders in Supply Chain Awards (4th edition in 2025 with 338 nominees from 280 companies and 2,000+ C-level peer voters) and the Makers & Movers in-person summit. A wholly-owned platform called Supplify extends the firm into a supply chain technology services marketplace, connecting corporations with validated tech vendors and offering a 50+ course learning library.

The business model is professional services: revenue is generated through retained executive search fees tied to successful placements, with custom, quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is sales-led direct enterprise engagement, supported by community-driven inbound demand generated through the podcast, awards, events, and content channels. There is no self-serve, product-led, or marketplace distribution for the core search service; all engagements originate from direct conversations between consultants and prospective clients. The firm is privately held with no disclosed external funding.
