The hardest seats are CEOs, CFOs, and independent directors who can face a regulator and an activist in the same day. You will fill them.
The work

- Hold relationships with CEOs, sponsors, and bankers.
- Price and structure retainers.
- Set the standard for off-limits, confidentiality, and how we talk about candidates.
- Mentor principals who will become the next partnership class.
What you have already done
- 10+ years executive search or a CEO/CFO network you can prove.
- A track record of closing at the board table, not just the inbox.
- Impeccable discretion. We will check.
- Willingness to travel New York–Miami–Tysons as a default.
Fit
- You will not staff a company you would not put a parent's savings into.
- You understand that search is a reputation business.
- You already believe this is a multi-decade category.
