Founded in 1977, Handler & Associates has become one of the most respected retained search consulting firms in America’s Southeast region. We specialize in locating executives, managers and individual contributors for key positions in a variety of industries. We serve many of the area’s most prominent corporations with whom we enjoy long-standing relationships, including both Fortune 500 firms and emerging companies.
Our consultants average 30 years of business experience and/or more than 10 years in the search industry. Day-to-day activities are handled by one of the partners, so clients can be assured that the same principles and expertise upon which Handler & Associates was founded are behind every significant decision relative to their search. And, since speed is a prerequisite by today’s fast-paced corporations, we can present a qualified panel to clients within days – not months – facilitating rapid completion of the assignment, by maximizing our efforts during the early stages of each search.
Our functional expertise is in sales & marketing, operations, distribution/supply chain, finance/accounting and human resources. We fill these positions across all industries as described in our Core Industry Specialties listed below.
Handler & Associates’ research capabilities include a professional research staff that focuses on original research for each assignment. We also explore other resources including our extensive in-house databases and library, sophisticated Internet technologies and personal relationships with numerous business, professional, consulting and academic resources that our firm has established over the years.
