Independent School
Southborough, MA
The DG team took the time to get to know our school and our Advancement office culture which helped our collaborative team buy in and paved the way for a great candidate recruitment. I felt well supported and informed all along the way, from initial outreach to candidates through finalist negotiations and reference checks. I highly recommend Development Guild’s Executive Search Service and I would definitely hire them again.
