People
At Hunter Ambrose, our expertise lies in executive and leadership search, where we focus on identifying and engaging exceptional individuals to form high-performing teams. Our success is driven by the talent and dedication of our seasoned professionals, who bring a wealth of experience and industry knowledge to each search. We deliver tailored solutions that align with our client's unique needs and strategic goals, fostering lasting relationships and ensuring outstanding results.

Process
The “modern” C-Suite Executive Search process dates back to before World War II. However, leveraging technology for successful client outcomes is a relatively new methodology embraced by Hunter Ambrose. In 2010, we introduced SparkHire one-way video interviews into our client process, and in 2023, we implemented Video Job Profiles. Our goal is to consistently offer our clients high-tech, high-touch, concierge-focused services for executive search.
This innovative approach combines the best of technology and personalized service, delivering exceptional results for our clients.
Performance
We believe that measuring performance is key to ensuring success. We utilize a robust set of metrics and analytics to evaluate the impact of our placements and the effectiveness of our strategies. These metrics include engagement levels, the quality of candidate interest, and other critical factors. By continuously monitoring and assessing performance, we can provide actionable insights and recommendations, allowing us to improve or pivot the search process as needed. Our commitment to excellence ensures that we don’t just find the right talent—we ensure they perform at the highest level, contributing to the sustained success and growth of your organization.
