OUR CLIENTS LOVE WORKING WITH US

I had several openings that I was having little success with on my own so I took advantage of the service that Stu could provide. He took the time to sit with the hiring managers to truly understand what they were looking for in a candidate and applied what he had learned and delivered. He is extremely professional, personable and focused and I have no concerns to recommend him to anyone.

Lesley Goldthorpe, CHRL

Director of Human Resources at Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council (OMVIC)

I am confident in how Stu works and trust that he will send me the best, qualified candidates for my most challenging vacancies. His solid people skills and ability to form good, trusting working relationships is the reason he has grown professionally and continues to be successful. His energy, willingness to help, determination and ability to LISTEN and focus on his client's needs are fundamental attributes not everyone has.

Aisha Alexander

Human Resources Manager at KIRCHHOFF Automotive

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Stu; a constant professional who invests the necessary time into listening, to properly gain perspective on what was taking place with my business in order to understand who I needed to hire. 

Sandra Penman, CHRL Director, Human Resources

HealthPRO Procurement Services Inc.

The Director Customer Experience is a key part of our marketing executive team, and the job requires someone with both excellent analytical skills and real creativity. Apex quickly identified multiple candidates who had the professional skills we needed and the personality to succeed in our organization.

EXECUTIVE SEARCH CASE STUDIES

Mount-It is an e-commerce company that offers a variety of home office and office products like desks, TV mounts, and office furniture. The San Diego business has grown sales through its website and partnerships with select third marketplaces like Amazon.

The marketing team has significant tactical capabilities to create product listings, photos, and other marketing assets. However, the Mount-It founders felt they were ready to invest in their first full-time marketing leadership position to take the company to the next level.

Buildfire is a mobile app builder that creates apps for iOS and Android.

More than 10,000 mobile apps have been developed on the Buildfire platform. Historically, the company has driven the majority of its growth through inbound marketing.

Recently, the company has expanded to add a sales team. Due to a recent staffing change, the company President was personally managing the company’s marketing. As a consequence, the President had limited capacity to pursue other initiatives.

To solve this problem, Buildfire needed to recruit a new marketing leader to fuel the company’s growth.
