Consider

 
  • What key people do you need to meet your business goals?

  • What is the cost to your business for not having highly qualified key people?

  • Has your internal system of finding quality candidates taken too long, or simply not worked?


Our Service Philosophy

We specialize exclusively in placing qualified professionals with environmental consulting firms nationwide.  Whether you are our client or our candidate, our aim is to be your partner, not just another recruiter.  We strive to develop quality, lasting relationships with our candidates and clients by conducting in depth searches of our extensive database of environmental professionals built over 30+ years of environmental consulting experience; matching candidates with many of our top tier ENR 500 consulting clients; offering timely responses to inquiries; providing accurate information about candidates and clients; maintaining clear and regular communication; conducting detailed interviews; working to accurately understand and present candidate and client background; walking alongside our clients and candidates throughout the entire interview and onboarding process; serving as the intermediary between client and candidate during the offer phase; providing reference checks where asked and; much more.  

Our Qualifications

With more than 30 years of successful experience in hiring, managing, recruiting and placing personnel in the environmental consulting industry, the founder, Dave Morris, has served in various roles including Operating Unit Director, Operating Committee Member, National Business Development Director, creator and leader of a National Business Development Team and Principal/Partner with an international environmental consulting firm and as a Corporate Account manager for a major industrial and hazardous waste management firm.  In those roles he has developed an extremely deep national network of technical professionals, business development experts, seller doers, managers and executives in the consulting arena along with a broad base of relationships with hiring managers of top tier environmental consulting firms across the country.  As a result of this experience on “both sides of the desk”, there are a number of advantages both a client and a candidate will receive.  

As a client, having a recruiter who has worked on “your side of the desk” means you will invest little or no time on industry explanations, position education or marginal or unqualified resume reviews.  If there is a business development or seller doer aspect to the role, you can rest assured we know the difference and understand what each entails.  If the role requires a management role with an understanding of how to generate a profit in consulting, you can be confident we understand multipliers, utilization, margins, net revenues and all the other revenue measurements required to run a profitable consulting operation.  Due to our background in environmental consulting and environmental recruiting we offer access to one of the deepest networks of qualified candidates in the environmental recruiting arena.  In a nutshell when you work with us you are working with someone who can say with you that we have “been there, done that”!  

As a candidate, having a recruiter who has worked on “your side of the desk” means you can rest assured we understand the ups and downs of the role you have been in or are going to.  We know the pressures of billed time for practitioners, profitability for managers and revenue generation for business developers and seller doers.  You can be assured that we will be presenting you to clients whom we would want to work for and you can relax knowing we understand your background and know how to present it to our clients in a factual and positive way.  Because we are respected by our clients and know their needs well, we are able to place your resume directly in the hiring manager’s hands, provide you with timely feedback and equip you with all the information you will need to successfully participate in future interviews. Once in the offer stage, we can get you answers to any questions you may have about your offer and assist you in any way necessary to ensure you receive a mutually satisfactory offer.  Finally, once your offer letter is signed we will work with you and our client to ensure your resignation and onboarding experience go as smoothly as possible.
