Ann B. Email & Phone Number

Started a search firm to address the gaps created by the underlap between large search firms (minimum fees of $60-75K) and contingent recruiters (limited experience recruiting $100K+ positions). Sweet spot is recruiting CEOs and EDs of community nonprofits who report to a Board of Directors. Consultative approach includes interviewing key stakeholders, e.g. parent and sister organizations, funders, investors, industry associations and strategic partners. This ensures high quality referrals and a successful candidate who has broad and deep buy-in, and a wealth of valuable on-boarding information. Focus on recruiting leaders who reflect the Communities being served to organizations committed to equitable access to health, education, opportunity and wealth. Tailored a best practices search approach reflecting unique needs of smaller non-profits, especially mission-driven organizations such as Federally Qualified Healthcare Clinics (FQHCs), Community Mental Health Centers (CMHCs), Certified Community Behavioral Health Centers (CCBHCs), Community Development Finance Institutions (CDFIs), Housing Focused Community Development Corporations, United Ways, YMCAs, Girls/Boys Clubs, Big Brother/Big Sisters, Nonprofit Associations, etc. Highly selective searches exclusively for privately held organizations of $500M or less revenues in select industries and markets, e.g. Social Justice, Impact Investing, Real Estate Developers investing in Affordable and Workforce Housing; public private partnerships and investment portfolios, etc.
