Executive Search - Our Mission is to Bring Smart People Together

Connecting Top Talent, Simplifying the Process.

We’ve built our careers on one simple idea: bringing talented people together and getting out of the way. Our approach to executive search is to create meaningful connections without ineffective processes that fail to add value for both parties.

With a formalized yet flexible process, we foster open, productive dialogues between organizations and exceptional candidates. It’s designed to foster a genuine conversation, so both sides can focus on what matters: exploring shared goals and opportunities.

While our clients are subject matter experts in their respective industries, our core competency is our ability to find and connect you with the exceptional talent that immediately adds value to your team.

Key Executive Placements

CEO, CFO, COO, CTO, CRO, VP of Talent Management.

Over the past several years, we have connected our clients with CFO, COO, VP of Finance, and Managing Director talent at companies that range in size from 5M – 1B in annual revenue.  Our clients serve HealthCare Technology, Management Consulting, Data Science Technology, Financial and Professional Services. 

Talent Advisory

When each step in the Talent Management process is executed correctly it accelerates positive outcomes for everyone involved.

Job Descriptions are the foundation of the Talent Acquisition (TA) process—yet we often hear from top talent that many JDs fail to clearly communicate critical role expectations. We help your team understand what the most critical information is that needs to be shared with potential employees and the best, most effective way to approach them – Candid Interviewing Process.

Start Narrow and Stay Focused While casting a wide net may seem like a pragmatic approach to recruiting, it more often than not leads to a great deal of wasted time and effort. Having a focused approach to engage with the right people who can not only perform at a high level but integrate into your existing leadership team is easier said than done. Knowing where to find and engage qualified candidates is imperative. We have proven methodologies that zero in on very qualified talent quickly.

Malcolm Gladwell says, “The best of the best get it right just over 50% of the time”. In other words, it’s a flip of the coin. He is referring to assessing talent and identifying truthfulness. Yet, too many executives still base hiring decisions on a brief 30-minute conversation. We believe strongly that in order to predict the future you study the past in detail — maybe the beauty is not in the eye of the beholder.

Do I Know What Is Expected Of Me is still one of the most important determining factors as to whether a person is going to succeed in a new role, or not. Yet as recently as 2023, 45% of employees reported having a clear understanding of what they were expected to do in their role. Clear expectations are only one of a handful of key critical aspects of onboarding. Over the years we have directly and indirectly assisted in hiring and onboarding thousands of new hires.
