Hire Managing Partners who carry the firm — P&L ownership, client portfolio, partner-group leadership, and practice growth for AEC consultancies, owner’s rep firms, and engineering practices. Book-of-business depth + firm-building record verified through references from boards, partners, and clients.
A structured, discreet process for the hire the whole firm answers to — where the wrong Managing Partner costs you clients, partners, and years of momentum.
30-minute confidential call. Align on firm stage, P&L scale, partner-group dynamics, equity structure, succession context, and timeline.
Within 2 weeks we introduce 3–5 Managing Partner candidates with sector-matched firm-leadership history. References from boards, partner groups, and clients included.
Every placement carries a replacement guarantee. If the hire fails within the warranty window, we run a no-fee replacement search.
A Managing Partner search is a succession and growth decision, not a resume screen. We verify the record that matters: revenue built, partners retained, clients who followed.
Every candidate has grown a practice or firm — revenue, headcount, and client base — verified with the boards and partners who saw it happen.
Reference-verified client relationships in your sectors — data center, life sciences, healthcare, energy — and a realistic view of what book travels.
Verified record of leading peers — partner compensation, governance, succession, and retention through transitions.
Before you meet a candidate, we have documented the leadership record behind the reputation:
Reference-verified firm or practice P&L ownership — scale, margin trajectory, and discipline.
Verified revenue and headcount growth attributable to the candidate, not the market.
Reference-verified client relationships and a candid assessment of portability.
Verified partner-group leadership — equity, compensation, succession, and conflict management.
Mission-critical sector standing — the candidate is known to the owners and operators you serve.
Base, bonus, profit distribution, and equity expectations aligned before finalists.
