Meet our Vice President of Executive Search, Nancy Painter.

One of the things I appreciated
about [Olive Grove] is that she
was able to offer a lot of choice
in terms of consultants that
could have worked with us, I
certainly had the sense that if I
hadn’t clicked with those
people, they would have had
other options
