Consumer products is all we do and over the years we’ve developed trusted relationships with current and emerging leaders in our industry, giving our clients a competitive advantage when it comes to attracting top talent. Our detailed, methodical and personal approach provides a more individualized experience for the candidate and ensures a successful hire for the client.
We start every search from scratch, taking time to tailor each search to the specific needs of our clients, understanding the culture, climate, goals and challenges that makes your business unique.
The best candidates aren’t always actively seeking a new position. We find this hidden talent using a combination of good, old-fashioned cold calling, networking and tapping into our candidate database. Our extensive database of passive talent is what sets us apart and it’s constantly changing. You won’t find our candidates combing the job boards or applying online – they’re too busy doing what it is that they do best.
Our reputation rests with the talent we place. Integrity, commitment, and confidentiality are the core of our business. We’re as focused on finding our clients the perfect hire as we are on finding our candidates the perfect job.
Our success rests with the talent we place. We’ve successfully placed 500+ CPG executives since 1999.
The strategic advantage of conducting a confidential search is often overlooked. We recently worked with a $150MM pet client to replace a SVP of Marketing that was no longer a fit with the changing needs of the business. The role was critical to the continued growth of the organization and we were able to help our client usher in a new leader with minimal disruption to the business.
The Grady Group worked with a better-for-you snacking start-up to identify a VP of Sales to launch their product into retail and foodservice. We identified 92 potential candidates and met with six in-person at Expo East, a regional trade show for the natural products industry. We presented 3 of the candidates that we met with in person plus two more that did not attend the show. Within a month, our client had interviewed all five candidates and decided to hire two, one for retail and one for foodservice. Six months later, both hires successfully established distribution in their respective channels, resulting in a threefold increase in overall revenue.
Eight years ago, the Grady Group worked with a private label paper manufacturer to hire a National Account Manager tasked with expansion into West Coast grocery. The initial hire has been rapidly promoted five times since he was hired, and now serves as the Senior Vice President & General Manager of the company’s entire consumer products division. He has full P&L responsibility and leads a team of 1,500 employees across manufacturing, supply chain, sales and marketing.
