We are successful in bringing our clients the very best talent for each area we specialize in. These experienced and talented candidates are all pre-screened and matched to our clients’ precise needs. The Colonial Group is ready to dedicate the necessary resources to research, qualify and present our clients with the best the market has to offer.

Confidentiality: Confidentiality in any search is extremely important. In an executive search, it is vital. We know that searches of this nature often are initiated while the position is still occupied. The Colonial Group not only understands the importance of confidentiality, we live by it. Irrespective of whether the position is one that is widely known or one that is being held in the strictest confidence, we handle each executive search with the utmost confidentiality possible.

Specialization: There are many “generalist” recruiting firms available. We believe that, by specializing, we are able to give our clients the precise talent they are looking for. We are also able to find passive candidates that are performing the exact same functions for other firms in the industry - individuals who are not actively seeking a change and are not reading the classified advertisements. Many times these individuals are performing these functions for direct competitors.

The key to success in any business is the ability to support the customer in the manner they both want and expect. Much of our business is repeat business from major companies across the U.S. there is NO better evidence of a company’s ability to perform than the amount of repeat business you receive. We take a tremendous amount of pride in this fact and target every new client as one that will be with us for a long time. Our client list is extremely impressive and portions can be shared with prospective clients (we of course respect the confidentiality of clients who wish otherwise). Most importantly, we would like to add your name to that list of repeat customers.
