Interim
Experienced leaders who deliver impact from day one through change, transformation or absence. Vetted, aligned and supported throughout.
Senior-led interim, executive and fixed-term leadership recruitment for the housing associations, registered providers and social landlords serving Hertfordshire.
Housing associations and registered providers carry a dual responsibility: delivering vital homes and services while remaining financially sustainable and accountable to residents and regulators. The right leadership is essential.
Oakmyre secures that leadership. Every search is underpinned by genuine due diligence, honest communication and a real understanding of values-led, accountable organisations, the work of a recruiter who has spent two decades across the public and purpose-led sectors.

Oakmyre is led by Sian Williams, who founded the firm after twenty years in senior and executive recruitment across the public sector, healthcare and purpose-led organisations.
She brings a clear understanding of accountable, values-led environments and the leadership they require. That insight, and the relationships behind it, is what Hertfordshire’s housing organisations get when they work with Oakmyre.
The focus is simple: securing the right leader, not just filling a vacancy.
Clients and candidates describe the time taken to understand their needs and the calibre of people put forward.
Working with Sian has been an absolute pleasure. Her attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure the right fit is achieved makes her stand out in the recruitment field. She is always on hand to address any concerns or just to talk through requirements, in a friendly, personable manner.
Working with Sian over the last decade has been a true partnership. From day one, her integrity and deep commitment to collaboration have stood out. She does not just place you in a role; she invests in your journey and builds a genuine, lasting relationship based on trust.
From start to finish, she guides you through the process, making it straightforward to secure the right people for your team. Sian will never recommend a candidate she does not genuinely believe is the right fit for the role. Her honesty, transparency and integrity are qualities that set her apart.
