ESOP

Industrials are a unique animal that requires an equally unique set of skills and experience. We know the ins, outs, ups and downs of manufacturing, distribution and industrial services. Complex situations like family-owned companies transitioning to ESOP or ownership transitions between private equity funds are no problem. We understand the special cultural issues and dynamics needed to find the right talent to helm the ship.

Who We Find

We exclusively recruit for executive positions in C-suite and VP roles. Our magic is in finding candidates that will accelerate your success immediately and into the future. (Okay, it’s not really magic, but our clients think it is.)

Repeating arrows

You know you’re dealing with the people that own the company. They make us feel important, it’s a great relationship.

It’s nice to have the two-year guarantee, but we haven’t had to use it. Most firms only give you one year.

They just get good results. We feel confident because of how they pull people from working gigs.
