Founded in 2015, Ferra Executive Search is based in Pittsburgh, providing national and international recruitment support at all levels for organizations in education, healthcare, technology, research, nonprofits, and high-growth startups.
We specialize in white-glove search services tailored to the unique needs of mission-driven and innovation-focused organizations. Our approach is ideal for teams that:
Require executive search to identify and recruit top-tier leadership talent;
