Adam Zak Executive Search is me doing what I do best: identifying and recruiting exceptionally talented Lean executives. I headhunt for a wide variety of organizations including small, entrepreneurial businesses, mid-market and privately held companies, private equity-owned portfolios, and a select number of the Fortune 500. 

My job is to develop a clear understanding of the executive role you need to fill and then to identify and deliver exactly the right person for the job. It’s a highly collaborative effort, a critical project in which we’ll be engaged for a few months, so it’s important that we’re a good fit for each other.

Here is some information that may help you understand if Adam Zak is a fit for your executive recruiting project. If you meet these criteria, it’s likely that I can help you.

1. I want to fill a senior-level operations executive position.

Typically, this could be a President or COO, a Chief Transformation Officer, or possibly CEO. Senior executives in Manufacturing, Services, Quality, or Supply Chain. And of course, Operational Excellence, Innovation, and Lean Continuous Improvement.

2. My financial and people resource budgets are aligned with my expectations.

The position I want to fill commands a base salary minimum of $150,000 and a comprehensive, market-competitive benefits package. I will dedicate the people and financial resources necessary from within our organization to collaborate with Adam Zak Executive Search until search completion.

3. I’m looking for a committed partner, not a vendor.

I want to work with the headhunter who takes ownership of the search project; works in my best interest and to the highest personal and professional standards; and, tells me the truth even when it challenges my opinions.
