When another search firm failed

SectorFamily-owned manufacturing
MandateExecutive leadership
Proof pointRight candidate identified within two months

A fourth-generation, family-owned manufacturer had previously engaged one of the world's largest executive search firms without success.

Through a board-level referral, Rowbottom Partners was engaged. Within two months, we identified a candidate who had been known to the previous firm but had never been presented to the client.

The answer is not always more candidates. Sometimes it takes a different strategy, deeper market knowledge and the willingness to look beyond the obvious.
