Are your current recruiting partners willing to agree to a higher level of transparency, integrity & commitment to you?Kilbourn Marshall is an Executive Recruiting firm built on the belief that Executive Search Recruiters can & should be a trusted partner to both companies looking to hire & candidates looking to take the next step in their career. Helping clients attract talent for difficult-to-fill roles within the Sales & Leadership is our mission. Here are our Unique Differentiators:DedicationWe dedicate 4 hours of an Executive Recruiter's time on a weekly basis to each search that we decide to accept. Compare that to an average of 30 mins on a weekly basis that some of our competitors dedicate to each search.ReputationHaving a reputation that can drive 100% of your annual revenue through word of mouth is the Holy Grail of sales & we've been there. Most recruiters get referrals...but how many have spent the past 4 years exclusively working on searches that they were referred to? We spent 2020 to 2024 only accepting searches from Clients that we were referred to. Join us in 2025 as we build upon that track record of success to scale up.DeterminationWe are the firm that Clients trust when they need a recruiting firm to come in & deliver results after their initial recruiting partners fail on a search. We take pride in being able to find the right candidate after other recruiting firms have failed.NegotiationWho is the only Executive Recruiting firm in the world that is licensed to use the world's first automated job offer negotiation tool? You guessed it...us! Tired of spending days or even weeks trying to determine if you can come to terms with your top candidate on salary? Our proprietary tool lets you know if we've got common ground the same day your offer is extended. Better yet...have your candidate submit their initial offer, counteroffer, and final offer of what they would accept to see if you have common ground before you even extend an offer.
