Valor Executive Search

Valor's mission is to help companies create enduring value by placing the right leaders in the right roles.  

 

We partner with our clients to clearly define objectives and expectations.  Then, we go to work to search beyond the obvious in order to produce exceptional leadership candidates - candidates whom are typically too busy within their own career to answer job postings.

 

Just a few components of Valor's search efforts include:

 

  • Employer discovery procedures

  • Metric building for objective criteria

  • Aggressive "head hunting" via personal out reach

  • Broad network out reach 

  • Candidate interviews

  • Background screening & reference checking

  • Personality assessments 

  • Formulation of recommendations

  • Assist with employment contract & salary negotiations

Due to pressure from key operational voids, organizations can feel pressure to hire the first suitable candidate.  Valor Executive Search strives to efficiently exhaust a search and we encourage our partner clients to allow the time necessary to ensure completion of this process, even though it means additional work on our end.  

 

Impactful leadership hires are our goal and we know that is what brings our client partners continuously back.

We don't just source talent.  In essence, Valor acts at a PR arm to help companies remain competitive in attracting the most sought after executives. 
-Michele Morrison, Managing Director
