Point of contact
NAURAACT offers three service lines, each led directly by Adina Popescu. The structure is intentionally simple: one consultant, one point of contact, one line of accountability. Whether you are a company seeking senior talent or a professional navigating your next move, the approach is the same — personal, direct, and grounded in nearly two decades of experience.

Executive Search
Senior and specialist search mandates led directly — from role briefing and market mapping to candidate engagement, assessment, and final recommendation. Every step is personally managed.
For: organisations seeking senior hires with discretion and rigor.
Discreet, hands-on recruitment for professional and mid-to-senior roles. A focused process with direct accountability, precise candidate calibration, and clear communication throughout.
Thoughtful support for professionals navigating transitions, re-positioning, leadership moves, or long-term career decisions. Rooted in real assessment experience and a frank, personal approach.
For: professionals seeking a trusted, experienced perspective.
Every engagement begins with careful listening, not a generic process template. The work is calibrated to the specific context of the role, the organisation, and the market. Assessment is not a separate stage — it is continuous, beginning from the first candidate conversation and continuing through to the final recommendation.

FAQ
Common questions.
Straight answers to the questions that come up most often. If you do not see what you are looking for, a direct conversation is always the best next step.
NAURAACT is intentionally independent. Every mandate is led personally by Adina Popescu — from the first client conversation to the final candidate recommendation. There are no junior researchers, no account layers, and no handoffs. This means deeper judgment, faster communication, and a level of discretion that is harder to maintain in larger, team-based structures.
It begins with a thorough briefing to understand the role, culture, and strategic context. From there, we conduct a discreet market mapping to identify the right profiles — not just those who are actively looking. Each candidate is engaged personally, assessed against the brief, and presented with evidence-based recommendations. The entire process is transparent, calibrated, and personally managed.
The practice focuses on senior and specialist mandates across Technology, Life Sciences, and Logistics & Supply Chain. This includes C-level appointments, functional leadership roles, country general managers, and specialist positions where deep sector context matters. We also support mid-to-senior recruitment where senior calibration adds value.
Most retained executive searches take between 8 and 14 weeks from briefing to shortlist, depending on the specificity of the role, the sector, and the seniority level. We set clear timelines at the outset and communicate regularly throughout. Speed is never pursued at the expense of quality or discretion.
Both. Companies engage NAURAACT for search and recruitment mandates. Professionals engage for career advising, transition support, and long-term career planning. The career advisory practice is built on the same assessment depth that informs search work — giving professionals a candid, experienced perspective on their options.
Technology, Life Sciences, and Logistics & Supply Chain. This focus is deliberate — sector context changes what good looks like. A technology business hiring a country general manager has different expectations than a regulated life sciences company hiring a medical director. Deep sector familiarity means better calibration, more credible conversations, and sharper assessment.
Executive search is conducted on a retained basis, with fees structured in stages aligned to milestones. For recruitment support and career advising, the model adapts to the scope and complexity of the engagement. Every proposal is transparent, with no hidden costs. The right first step is always a conversation.
Discretion is the default, not an add-on. The independent, lean structure of NAURAACT means fewer touchpoints, controlled information flow, and a low public profile. Confidential searches — including succession planning, replacement searches, and new market entries — are a significant part of the practice.
NAURAACT is based in Romania and works with clients and candidates across European and international markets. Modern communication tools make geography less relevant than judgment, cultural calibration, and the quality of the process.
The simplest way is to email or send a message via WhatsApp. There is no obligation, and every initial conversation is fully confidential. We will discuss your situation, answer questions, and determine whether NAURAACT is the right fit for what you need.
