Become visible before the role becomes public

I help GCC directors, VPs and senior leaders build a faster path to their next role through hidden-market intelligence.

Independent executive job-search advisory for senior leaders in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC — working only for you, never for the employer.

01  /  05

Most senior roles are filled before they're advertised.

By the time a director or VP role is public, the real conversation has often already started. Applying to more postings won't change that. The leaders who move fastest get visible earlier — to the right companies and the right decision-makers, while the role is still taking shape.

I work for the candidate, not the company.

Executive search firms are paid by employers to fill the employer's roles. I'm not. I'm engaged by you, and the whole strategy is built around your next move — your positioning, your target market, your campaign. That single difference changes whose interests get served at every step.

Before building this advisory practice, I spent years inside senior talent and hiring markets across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, including executive search exposure with Michael Page. That gave me a direct view into how leadership opportunities actually move, how decision-makers assess talent, and why many strong professionals stay invisible until their positioning is fixed.

Market intelligence, not mass applications.

I read where leadership demand is forming — growth, expansion, restructures, new market entries, capital projects, funding and licences — and turn it into a map of the companies and decision-makers worth your attention. Not "apply to more jobs." Where to become visible, and why.

How the hidden job market works

A focused 60-day engagement.

Three phases over sixty days — Repositioning, Market Mapping and a Live Campaign. You finish with a sharper executive position, a mapped target market, and live conversations underway with the right people. It doesn't guarantee an offer; it builds a far more focused path to the right conversations.

01

Repositioning

Fix how you show up before any outreach.

02

Market Mapping

Find where demand is forming before roles go public.

03

Live Campaign

Turn the map into the right conversations.

The Founder

Helping senior leaders become visible, trusted, and chosen.

Sterenzon Advisory is led by Daniel Sterenzon, who has spent six years in advisory — results-led, not theory-led. The focus rarely changes: find where a senior leader is under-positioned, read where the market is moving, and get them in front of the right decision-makers.

What makes it modern is the method. Daniel pairs human advisory with AI-supported market intelligence — using current AI tools and HR-market technology to read hiring signals, surface hidden opportunities, analyse positioning gaps and map decision-makers — so clients can move before roles ever become public.

This isn't recruitment. It's advisory: market intelligence, AI-enabled research and executive positioning, aimed at one outcome — senior professionals who are more visible, more trusted, and more likely to be chosen.
