Strategic Talent Solutions - Interim, Consultative or Permanent
At Hunter Ambrose, we help organizations make one of their most critical decisions—who leads. Every engagement is designed for precision, speed, and long-term fit. From C-Suite succession to interim transitions and boardroom strategy, we align leadership with vision and execution.
We serve mission-driven, investor-backed, and essential services sectors where results, accountability, and alignment matter. Our retained model ensures you receive the full attention of a senior team—never a junior handoff. Every search and engagement is led by Nicole Barbano and tailored to your needs.
Executive Search
Permanent | C-Suite | Senior Leadership | Specialized Roles
We recruit high-impact leaders across industries, with a proven record in healthcare, energy, public utilities, law, and private family offices. Our model combines targeted research, confidential outreach, and deep candidate evaluation. We take on a limited number of clients per quarter to provide elite-level attention and a fast turnaround.
What You Can Expect:
Flat-fee, retained fee structure
Average search completion: under 100 days
One-year placement guarantee
Weekly status updates and real-time candidate feedback
AI leveraged protocol with a high-touch engagement
91% candidate-to-interview rate
Interim Leadership
Rapid Placement | Stabilization | Change Management
When organizations face unexpected transitions or urgent gaps, we deliver experienced interim executives who can lead immediately. Our bench includes former CEOs, CFOs, CNOs, and operational leaders with a track record of results in high-accountability and mission-critical environments.
Unlike traditional staffing models, our interim placements are structured as at-will employees of the client, not employees of Hunter Ambrose. This model gives your organization greater flexibility, control, and cost savings. When housing and transportation are coordinated directly by your team for on-campus roles, you avoid unnecessary agency markups, maximizing the value of every dollar while still gaining access to top-tier interim leadership.
Our interim solution is ideal for:
Executive transitions and vacancies
Turnaround and performance mandates
Mergers, acquisitions, or restructuring
Stabilizing departments during active searches or leave of absence
