Founders

Elizabeth Middleton
Co-Founder, Business Development Manager
Elizabeth previously worked at a leading Executive Search firm based in Southern California for nearly 20 years. She developed her own progressive methodology of building out nationwide relationships with selective clients. By narrowing the scope of clientele, this avoids recruiting candidates out of the clients' talent pool. This loyal methodology produced an exceptional rate of job orders and placements. Elizabeth was a pioneer and trail blazer helping take the company from a California focus to a national level. Within this rebranding internally, she was highly instrumental in building out a network of over 2500 candidates and clients covering each major insurance hub city. Elizabeth is passionate about Executive Search that is efficient, effective and an enjoyable experience for clients and candidates!
