About Us

Founded by a team of industry veterans in 2005, we are experts at helping our clients identify, select and inspire the exceptional leaders your business requires to succeed.

Anyone can fill a seat, but only a partner will find the right person. It’s right there in our name.

Our Approach

Focused, specialized, no conflicts

We believe executive search firms are most effective when they are focused and specialized and we have developed that expertise within a range of industries and functions. We understand how to engage and attract the kind of leaders you need to drive positive results for your company. We value experience yet are not blinded by it. We are always looking forward. That’s the new way to search – it’s just not new to us.

We have made the conscious decision to limit the work we do within any industry vertical, ensuring unobstructed access to the talent you need.

Our Philosophy

Reilly Partners puts culture first by being a genuine environment where we honor our commitment to clients and colleagues by doing exactly what we say we’re going to do.  Furthermore, Reilly Partners gives each team member the freedom to bring their complete, unvarnished selves to the workplace without any pretense. Because of this, our team truly works together to deliver the best work on behalf of our clients.

We are able to set ourselves apart from our competition by allowing anyone and everyone, regardless of title or role, to contribute to solving problems for our clients and the overall business of our firm. Ideas are allowed to flow freely while management leverages the opportunity to teach allowing junior members of our team to learn while understanding that their voice and development matters.

Our commitment to diversity: diversity of perspective makes organizations more effective, more creative, and more profitable, and we believe diversity in the workplace should reflect the reality of our global landscape. As such, Reilly Partners is committed to encouraging diversity and inclusion in the workplace for ourselves as well as for our clients. We recognize that company culture is crucial to the success of any business, and this is an integral part of our universal approach to retained search.
