Rockland and Westchester are home to family-owned companies, growing mid-size firms, healthcare organizations and the regional offices of national brands. When one of them needs a new leader, the right person is usually not looking. They are running a team somewhere else, often within a short drive. That is the work of executive search: finding them, earning their attention and making a confidential case for your opportunity.
HireUp Group is based in Monroe, in neighboring Orange County. We work with employers across Rockland, from Suffern, Monsey and Spring Valley to New City, Nanuet, Pearl River and Nyack, and across Westchester, from White Plains, Tarrytown and Yonkers to Harrison, Rye and Mount Kisco.
Roles we search for
Directors, vice presidents, general managers, controllers and CFOs, COOs and CEOs, and senior specialists in sales, operations, finance, construction and property management. Most of our executive searches are for roles paying $100K or more.
When executive search is the right tool
Executive search makes sense when the role is senior, when the right people are employed and not applying, or when the hire must stay confidential. It is also worth considering when a leadership role has been open for months, or when a previous hire did not work out and another miss would be costly. For other roles, our direct-hire recruiting may be the better fit, and we will tell you so. Many Rockland and Westchester employers also draw leaders from Bergen County and Orange County, so we search the whole region, not just one county.
A search built for discretion
Leadership changes are sensitive. Sometimes the person in the seat does not know yet; sometimes a competitor should not. We can run the search without naming your company until a candidate is qualified and interested. Candidates who are employed elsewhere need to know their conversations stay private, and they do.
What the process looks like
- Define the role. We meet with you and the decision makers to agree on first-year outcomes, must-have experience, compensation and how the new leader will be measured.
- Map the market. We identify people doing similar work at comparable companies in the region and beyond.
- Approach and assess. We speak with each prospect directly, test their track record with specific questions and look closely at fit with your culture.
- Present a short list. You see a few strong candidates with written notes, not a stack of resumes.
- Close and onboard. We handle references, help shape the offer and stay in touch through the first months.
