Retained Executive Search for Manufacturing & Consumer
general-manu.pngOur manufacturing practice spans search work for companies ranging from businesses spawned from the country’s top university incubators focused on nexgen manufacturing processes with deep related patent portfolios, to more traditional manufacturing sectors in need of upgrading. Most of the companies for which we recruit are in the lower-middle market to middle market and many are backed by private equity investors, as is true in most of our practice specialties.  The consistent theme we hear from our clients is the imperative for change within these businesses.

The Importance of “Discovery” in Executive Search: Measure twice, cut once The point I always come back to is that to manage a successful search, to find the best executives for positions, real heavy lifting must be done before candidates are interviewed. This part of the search is called “discovery,” and without it, the search can go astray and drag on. Read More

Testimonials

“Other firms rush in, don’t do the deep dive to understand needs that BSG does.  PE firms value their time and BSG understands that.  They do not waste time on people that are not a fit.  BSG’s systematic interview process far exceeds what we have experienced with other search firms."

Don Charlton, Operating Partner, Argosy Capital

”We chose BSG because we felt that their approach would be more systematic and more transparent than other Executive Search Firms that we have used. Indeed, the weekly reviews which were always conducted on time and efficiently, the access to their candidate development list, and our ability to preview recorded candidate interviews before meeting with candidates all supported a very effective process.

Beyond that, BSG's ability to listen to our requirements and their ability to design a search around our specific requirements was the ultimate key to the success of our CEO search. We never felt as if we were receiving a recycled list of "the usual suspects" and we were impressed that they continued to carry out candidate development to the very end even as we began to focus on our finalist. We highly recommend them.”

David P. Bernstein, President & CEO, Trexel

“Trumponomics”—7 minutes of Economic Predictions for 2017

This is the whiteboard animated highlights reel from our annual private equity dinner held each November where we invite noted global economist Dr. Allen Sinai to speak about what lies in store for the year ahead.

This year was unique in that Allen spoke to the group about a week after the surprise 2016 presidential election, and the likely effects of a Trump administration on the economy.
