We provide an effective combination of local presence and national reach.

Recruiting talented leaders is one of the most critical and challenging business considerations for any organization. Attracting and hiring impact players who can drive a company’s success is a demanding, time-consuming and expensive process. We provide the experience, commitment and resources needed to make that process successful. We manage the search process from spec meeting to on-boarding, providing objective market insight and real-time consulting on issues that may impact the success of a search.

Non-profit organizations are constantly facing new challenges beyond those inherent in their missions. While ably serving the best interests of their communities and supporters, they face increased pressure on revenue generation and funding streams. As a result, successful non-profit leaders must combine a business mind with a nonprofit heart. The ability to develop and implement new visions of “what’s possible” for their organizations is of critical importance.

At Sterling, we understand these evolving dynamics and the need for breakthrough results. We partner with nonprofit boards and senior leadership teams to conduct executive searches tailored to their unique organizational needs and mission mandates.

We provide an effective combination of local presence and national reach. As a trusted advisor and search partner, we connect with qualified executives through original research, a state-of-the-art database and an extensive network of contacts that enables the consistent delivery of the leadership talent needed in today’s non-profit world.

Diversity Search

Successful organizations are a reflection of the communities and customers they serve. We focus on diversity as an important element in all searches we undertake. We are proud of our commitment to diversity and our success in recruiting diversity candidates to executive and management level positions. We do this through our access to key minority organizations and an extensive network of contacts.
