Governance
Confidentiality & Governance
Executive search is built on trust. Every protocol, system, and practice at PixelPage is designed to protect the identities, interests, and reputations of everyone we work with.
100% of our mandates are handled under strict confidentiality protocols. NDA available on request before any briefing.
Our Protocols
Discretion is not a feature. It is our foundation.
Below are the specific protocols we apply to every engagement — documented, practiced, and enforced.
01
NDA & Engagement Agreement
- Mutual NDA executed at engagement initiation — before any role details are shared
- Role specifications, compensation data, and candidate identities treated as confidential at all times
- Separate non-circumvention provisions protecting client relationships from candidate engagement
- All agreements governed under Saudi law where applicable
02
Discreet Candidate Outreach
- No role advertised on public job boards without explicit client approval
- Direct, one-to-one candidate outreach — no mass distribution of role descriptions
- Candidate identity never disclosed to client without explicit candidate consent
- Client identity never disclosed to candidate until mutual agreement on proceeding
03
Data Handling & Privacy
- Candidate and client data stored in secure, access-controlled systems
- Data retention policies aligned with PDPL (Personal Data Protection Law) requirements
- No third-party sharing of personal data without explicit written consent
- CV and assessment data purged at candidate or client request
04
Sensitive Mandate Management
- Incumbent-replacement mandates handled with structured information barriers between search and delivery teams
- Board succession mandates assigned to a single senior consultant to minimise information exposure
- Market rumour management protocol in place for listed entity mandates
- Post-placement discretion maintained — no placement announcements without client approval
05
Governance Alignment
- All search activities comply with SAMA, CMA and Ministry of HR regulatory guidance on employment and data
- Anti-bribery and corruption policy applied across all client and candidate interactions
- Senior consultant accountability for all mandates — no delegation to junior staff without oversight
- Annual confidentiality training for all PixelPage consultants and associates
Our Commitment
"If any aspect of our discretion process ever falls short of your expectations, we want to know. Your trust is not something we take for granted."
