Acumen Executive Search has received multiple industry awards, nominations, and strong client recognition.
This is the most amazing candidate pool I have ever seen; it gives me so much hope. We could hire any and all of them. I started feeling bad when I thought about having to tell someone ‘no’.
Acumen Executive Search, led by Suzanne and her team, brought confidence, expertise, and deep nonprofit knowledge to our Executive Search. Michelle presented a strong pool of qualified candidates, and the team engaged effectively with our Board of Directors, providing clear communication, responsiveness, and reassurance throughout the process. Their commitment to exceeding expectations and following through on contract expectations and beyond made them a valuable partner. I highly recommend them to any nonprofit seeking top leadership talent.
Thank you so much for the professionalism, creative thinking, and hard work. Your efforts really paid off. We’re truly excited to have our new Executive Director takeover in a couple of weeks. She really is the one person who can take our legacy to the next level. We couldn’t have done it without you.
I appreciate your efforts and want to let you know you are rock-stars recruiters. You go up and above and do a fantastic job for your clients and professional staff you are placing. You have a great reputation in the market, that is why you are able to recruit and work with super people.
I very much enjoyed meeting and working with Acumen. The experience was a pleasure and everything went smoothly and quickly. I would definitely use Acumen again for any future employee searches.
Suzanne and the staff at Acumen are a delight to work with. I am impressed with their ability to ask the right questions in order to gain a thorough understanding of a position, company culture and candidates. I can’t recommend them enough!
