Executive Search Services
Great people make great organizations, which is why some of the best nonprofits, foundations, start ups, and select socially responsible for-profit organizations have turned to Pillar, an executive search firm that has earned a reputation for hiring the best.
Pillar will work with you to customize a search to meet your hiring strategies at all levels of your organization, from individual contributor to Executive Director/CEO. Pillar is a boutique executive search firm, meaning that it is a small firm that is passionate about our clients, consultative, treats every client personally, works in a timely manner, and does not rely on junior staff to work with clients or candidates.
