Our Approach
At Next Exec, we tackle executive recruiting with a highly consultative approach. Every organization has a unique culture. Integrating a new senior executive will have profound ramifications. Many lives will be impacted. This requires more than software, algorithms, and databases.
Securing top talent requires an experienced human touch and a carefully designed approach. Your search will be personally conducted by a dedicated Managing Partner from start to finish. We begin by learning the very special qualities of your organization. We design a comprehensive plan to identify and qualify prospective candidates. We integrate your feedback to focus on the most critical factors. We then assist you in determining the best match of experience, skills, education, and cultural fit.
Our process ensures you meet only genuinely interested and highly qualified candidates eager to explore your opportunity. Upon hire, we provide your new executive with transition assistance. This will smooth out any wrinkles and minimize the possibility of counter-offer scenarios. Once onboard, our assimilation coaching improves the experience for the new executive and other stakeholders. This helps ensure success in the early days and increases your long-range return on investment.

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.
