​I am very pleased to recommend the services of Next Exec.  (We) engaged Next Exec for a search to hire an administrator. Prior to engaging Next Exec, we had used other professionals and done our own search for over two years with no viable candidates. Murray’s work to secure a viable candidate was comprehensive and thorough. He provided sound advice and suggestions throughout the search. In short, we are very pleased with the service and the outcome. I would recommend Next Exec without reservation.

We have had a heck of a year.  Thanks in large part to you and Next Exec, we have opened 8 new
locations.  You all did a great job for us.  I would never have committed to such an aggressive schedule if I
had not had confidence in your capabilities.  I want to thank you and Karen and everyone in your company
for helping us take advantage of all the opportunities we have had.”
