Executive Search is a complex business, a combination of art and science. Timing, personality, experience, compensation, location, culture, and ability are just a few of the numerous considerations it takes to make a match that both yields growth and has a long-term positive impact on the bottom line.
The Executive Connections search consulting team possesses decades of experience finding the right Executive for our corporate clients and the right career opportunities for senior executives. We achieve excellence in the search process by considering the needs of both our clients and our candidates.
Many retained search firms all utilize similar search processes so on the surface there is not a lot to differentiate one search firm from another. However, the search process at Executive Connections is unique because of our specialization and the fact we are well-known and well-connected in three specific industries:
Financial Services
Direct Marketing
Branding & Marketing Communications
This industry focus means that we know the reputations of many of the executives we are recruiting before we even start a search assignment, providing us with a head start in securing “star talent” for our clients.
We also have achieved a very positive reputation and attained high visibility in the industries we specialize in. This gives us broad access to the senior executives we need to reach in order to be effective.
However, we also recognize that in the search business what matters most is filling positions well the first time. The cost of failure is so high for clients, candidates, and ourselves, it is simply not an option.
That’s why, in addition to the search itself, we provide an executive coach for a 6-month period for every senior executive we place. This is an innovative, added-value offer, without additional charge to our clients. We do this, as a practical matter, because it makes good business sense.
Executive Connections is so sure about our search process and has so many positive experiences, that we
Guarantee the success of the executives we place.
