Executive Recruiting

When to Begin the Executive Recruiting Process


While unforeseen circumstances can prompt an expedited executive recruiting process, numerous predictable scenarios demand the assistance of corporate staffing solutions:

  • Mergers and acquisitions: In specific instances, M&A activities lead to the replacement of CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and other C-suite members
  • Retirement: As high-level executives such as VPs approach retirement, identifying a qualified successor becomes paramount
  • Scaling: Often, rapidly expanding SMEs that may have previously managed executive roles within the company find the need for dedicated C-level leadership

After projecting future gaps and defining the required background and skill sets, organizations can choose to engage an executive headhunter or commence their own executive search.

Key Qualities to Seek in Executive Candidates


In most scenarios, executives bring a wide range of credentials, past experiences, and specialized skill sets. As former executives ourselves, our executive recruiting consultants emphasize the importance of identifying same-industry parallels between the candidates under evaluation and the required background for the vacant position.

Should you opt to collaborate with an executive search firm, we recommend ensuring that they possess a well-established client network encompassing diverse backgrounds and industry specializations. At Sunfield Advisors, our executive recruiting team has derived immense value from our extensive client network, benefiting both our enterprise partners and the executive talent pool.
