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 recruitment for the organisations that keep Buckinghamshire running: its councils, charities and social enterprises, the wider voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector, and the NHS.
From Buckinghamshire’s local authorities to its charities, housing associations, social enterprises and NHS Trusts, the region’s purpose-led organisations depend on the right people, in the right roles, at the right time.
Oakmyre secures those people. Every search is underpinned by genuine due diligence, honest communication and long-term thinking, the work of a recruiter who has spent two decades across local government, the charity and not-for-profit sectors and the NHS, not a generalist agency filling a vacancy.
We connect exceptional people with purposeful organisations.

Oakmyre is led by Sian Williams, who founded the firm after twenty years in senior and executive recruitment, predominantly within the NHS, the wider public sector and purpose-led organisations.
She has sat alongside hiring panels, advised on how to shape senior teams, and looked after interims throughout their assignments. That insight, and the relationships behind it, is what Buckingham’s public services get when they work with Oakmyre.
The focus is simple: securing the right leader, not just filling a vacancy.
Clients describe the time taken to understand their needs, the calibre of candidates, and consistent support throughout.
I have found Sian to be an efficient and quality professional who has proved herself excellent at meeting client requirements, actively listening and asking the right questions to get best fit first time round. I wouldn’t hesitate to make her my first call for future needs.
Sian is always very responsive to requests and enquiries. As customers she ensures we feel valued. She is a good communicator and builds relationships in a professional and positive manner.
Sian has worked hard to understand our requirements and put forward candidates who closely match our business needs, without the need for us to interview many individuals.
Built on long-term relationships, not transactions, across local government, charity, care and the NHS.
We work with NHS Trusts, the Buckinghamshire integrated care system, local authorities and councils, charities and VCSE organisations across the Thames Valley, at senior, executive and board level.
No. The NHS is one important part of our work, but not the whole of it. We also partner with local government, charities, not-for-profit and the wider voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, as well as commercial organisations.
Interim, fixed-term, executive search and fractional appointments, from Head of Function and Director level through to executive and board roles.
We work in partnership, not at pace for the sake of it. Quality, transparency and care guide every engagement, and every search is led personally by Sian.
Yes. Every engagement begins with a conversation. Whether the brief is fully formed or you are still working it through, we would welcome the chance to talk.
The best outcomes come from an honest conversation about what is genuinely needed. If you are shaping a senior public sector appointment in Buckinghamshire, we would welcome the conversation.
