I've been asked to help a colleage from irsa with this search. I'm excited about the collaboration!
His client in the San Francisco Bay area has an urgent need to identify, recruit and hire this EVP absolutely as soon as possible.
We would prefer to identify candidates who would not require relocation, only from a timing perspective. We'd like to get the EVP started as quickly as possible. The job description is pretty clear about the importance of the position, it's also clear about the kind of ambitious (driven) personality that we're looking for.
If you know of qualified candidates, we would appreciate the referral. If you'd like to forward this description to friends and or colleagues who might know qualified candidates, please feel free (and encouraged) to do so. We will handle all inquiries with the utmost discretion and confidentiality.
