Our manufacturing and supply chain executive recruiters track emerging leadership and industry trends, equipping you with actionable intelligence throughout the search.
We design a bespoke recruitment strategy around your objectives, rigorously vet candidates for cultural fit and impact, and guide you through offers, negotiations, and onboarding.
Executives we place stay in their roles well beyond the typical tenure, contributing to sustained performance and stability for your organization.
With 20+ years of combined industry experience, our team brings firsthand knowledge of supply chain, procurement, manufacturing, and operations to executive searches. Our supply chain executive recruiters understand the responsibilities behind senior leadership roles and the experience required to lead complex organizations.
That industry knowledge shapes how we approach each supply chain executive search. We work with you to understand the leadership requirements and business objectives, then develop a customized search strategy to identify and engage executive-level talent through targeted outreach and our industry network. Candidates are evaluated for their leadership experience, technical expertise, and alignment with the scope of the role.
We recruit executive talent across supply chain, operations, manufacturing, procurement, logistics, and warehouse functions. Our searches include senior leaders responsible for supply chain strategy, procurement, manufacturing operations, logistics, distribution, warehouse operations, and broader operational performance.
We work across leadership levels, from Directors and Global Commodity Managers to Vice Presidents, Chief Supply Chain Officers, and Chief Procurement Officers, with each search tailored to the scope and requirements of the position.
Our industry experience allows our supply chain executive recruiters to take a more informed, strategic approach to candidate evaluation. We look beyond the résumé to understand the depth of an executive's experience, the challenges they have managed, the scope of their leadership, and the results they have delivered.
For each search, we develop a candidate profile and scorecard with the client, establishing the criteria we use to evaluate every executive. We rigorously vet candidates against those requirements, assessing their leadership capabilities, technical expertise, business impact, and organizational fit to determine whether their experience aligns with what the company needs for the role.
Yes. We offer flexible search models designed around your timeline, hiring priorities, and the level of focus your search requires.
Exclusive Contingency Search (20% fee). Our most popular model. By partnering with us exclusively for 30 days, you receive dedicated resources, priority outreach, and a reduced fee while retaining flexibility in your hiring process.
Contingency Search (25% fee). A pay-for-performance model where you can work with multiple recruiting sources and only pay a fee if we successfully place a candidate. This model is ideal for general and mid-level supply chain roles.
Retained Executive Search (18% fee). Designed for Director, VP, C-suite, confidential, or highly specialized searches. As a retained executive search firm, we provide dedicated resources, deep research, and a search tailored to the scope and confidentiality of the position.
The right model depends on the role, hiring priorities, and level of search commitment your organization needs. We can help you determine which approach is the best fit for your search.
We primarily target passive talents through targeted outreach, industry relationships, referrals, and our internal candidate network. These professionals are not actively searching for a new opportunity, so we take the opportunity directly to them rather than waiting for them to apply. Roughly 70–75% of the talent market is passive, and many of these professionals are strong performers who are succeeding in their current roles.
As a supply chain executive recruiting firm, we look at a candidate's career progression, leadership scope, industry experience, and track record to determine whether an opportunity is relevant to their goals. Our firsthand experience across supply chain, procurement, manufacturing, and operations helps us engage senior professionals credibly and have informed conversations about the opportunity.
Our average time-to-fill is 4.5 weeks, with a shortlist of vetted candidates typically delivered within two weeks of kickoff. Executive searches can vary depending on the seniority, scope, and complexity of the position, but we establish expectations and timelines with your team at the start of the search.
We keep the search moving through clear communication, timely candidate delivery, and close coordination with your team. This helps maintain momentum with qualified executives while giving your team the time needed to make a confident hiring decision.
Strong executive candidates can move quickly, so timely communication from your team helps keep the search on track and candidates engaged.
Share your interview process upfront. We use your interview stages to set clear expectations with candidates from the beginning.
Provide timely feedback. Prompt feedback on candidates and interviews allows us to keep the search moving and adjust the search as needed.
Keep interviews moving. Timely scheduling helps maintain candidate interest and reduces the risk of losing qualified executives during the process.
Stay engaged in the search. Regular communication gives us the insight we need to refine the search and stay aligned with your hiring priorities.
We stand behind every placement we make.
Entry- to mid-level roles include a 90-day replacement guarantee. If a candidate leaves or does not meet expectations within that period, we restart the search at no additional cost.
Director-level and executive searches can include extended guarantee periods. These terms are discussed and tailored during the initial engagement based on the scope of the search.
Our executive recruiters serve companies across a wide range of industries, including aerospace and defense, industrial manufacturing, automotive, food and beverage, technology, healthcare, and consumer products. We support organizations ranging from growing companies and startups to Fortune 500 businesses and private equity-backed organizations.
Our firsthand experience in supply chain, procurement, manufacturing, and operations allows us to understand the leadership demands within each industry. Our work includes supply chain executive search, procurement executive search, executive search logistics, and executive search operations, with each search tailored to the leadership requirements and business needs of the organization.
Getting started is simple. Contact our team to discuss your executive hiring needs, the position, and your goals for the search. We’ll help you determine the search model that best fits the role, whether retained, exclusive contingency, or contingency.
Once we agree on the engagement, we begin with a joint intake call with your HR team and hiring manager. We align on the role, define the ideal executive profile and scorecard, and establish the search strategy before candidate outreach begins.
From there, our team identifies and evaluates qualified executive talent and stays involved through interviews, offer negotiations, and placement.
