Tim Walton

Principal, Portfolio Search

Tim leads our Portfolio Practice in Europe, supporting a diverse set of investors from VC, PE and Core Infrastructure, on building robust and effective leadership teams at the executive and non-executive level across their portfolios.

Tim began his career with One Search, where his passion for sustainability and decarbonisation was born. After a few years, he took the opportunity to explore life in a leading tier 1 search firm as part of their Global Industrial Practice, where he successfully worked on the appointment of C-level executives across hydrogen, transport, energy technology and advanced manufacturing as well as the build out of several pioneering decarbonisation investment platforms, globally. Tim returned to One Search in 2021 to focus on continuing to make an impact through talent.

Outside of the office, Tim is a keen athlete having represented GBR in sailing and water polo during his younger years. Residing in Dublin, Ireland, Tim now spends his time in the Wicklow Mountains on his bike and racing in the Irish National Series.

“Changing jobs during COVID was not easy. One Search were instrumental in keeping the interview process on track, feeding back to me as a candidate so that I felt comfortable with the job fit and culture during a period of mandatory Zoom interviews, and ultimately making sure both sides were happy when it came time to sign the contract. Their approach was just the right amount of involvement at just the right times.”
