Effective September 1, 2026, Hunter Ambrose International will begin an exciting new chapter.

For more than twenty years, Hunter Ambrose has operated as a retained executive-search firm under the leadership of its founder, Nicole Barbano. During that time, Nicole and the HA team completed more than 1,000 executive and professional placements across 42 states and three continents.

As the business world continues to evolve, Nicole will now focus more fully on her consulting, advisory and writing projects.

Her work will include select executive-search and recruitment engagements, executive coaching, project management and fractional leadership.

Current and prospective clients can learn more about Nicole’s work, schedule appointments and begin a conversation at NicoleBarbano.com

Hunter Ambrose International will continue as the parent company for Nicole’s advisory practice, publications and related business interests.

The past twenty years have been an extraordinary journey. Nicole and her team are deeply grateful to the clients, candidates and colleagues who have been part of it—and look forward to the conversations and opportunities ahead.
