Our goal as a women-owned executive recruitment firm is to be a trusted partner delivering tangible financial and performance results.

• Hiring decisions impact companies, careers and families.
• We treat our partners how we want to be treated.
• Helping clients succeed guarantees our success.

• We listen and get to know our partners through transparent communication. Our consultative approach ensures a deep understanding of both your hiring and cultural needs.
• We work closely to gain a full understanding of each partner's capital needs and long-term strategic goals. By tapping into a network built over 25+ years, we have unparalleled access to passive candidates not actively on the market.
• We deliver talent solutions with knowledge, speed and confidentiality. The key to our success is in the integration of technology, our business savvy and enduring relationships

RETAINED

• Retained Search affords clients our highest priority of time and attention. Exceptional service levels are delivered by experienced consultants with best practices honed through regional and global successful partnerships, representing the optimum path to building a winning executive team! Retained searches guarantee a hire is made.

CONTINGENT

• If your hiring need is not urgent or if your organization is working with other external partners, contingency search is an alternative approach that allows you to only pay a fee once a candidate is hired. While some companies prefer this option, unlike our retained or hybrid search models, it does not guarantee that a hire is made.

HYBRID

• Drawing from our strengths and experience in retained searches, we understand that not all clients have the ability to operate under this fee agreement. We've created a hybrid of retained and contingency models that still affords clients a higher priority than a contingency search because all parties have "skin in the game" with a small deposit that commences the search.
