Maitland Partners Announces New Spin on Retained Executive Search

Riverside, CA, March 27, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Maitland Partners announces an industry-leading retained executive search model that reinvents the decades-old search process and creates an improved structure that better meets the needs of clients.

The Maitland Partners model incorporates strong research and candidate development, behavioral interviewing and assessments performed by organizational development professionals, and search leadership that is experienced in candidate management. This overall process determines the right cultural fit for candidates, and can be critical in “selling” the opportunity to them—a key to landing the type of A-Player that can have a significant impact on an organization.

This is all done with a “no surprises” Three-Tier Flat-Fee structure and protects clients from unanticipated costs when the “right” candidate requires a higher compensation plan than initially anticipated. Regardless of what the final candidate offer is, the client will never pay more than the initially negotiated fee.

Jim MacNee, Principal and Founder, stated, “Reinventing the retained executive search experience is a pretty bold claim, but when clients were asked to identify what they didn’t like about the current retained search model utilized across the industry, their answers were resoundingly unanimous.” MacNee went on to say, “We saw an opportunity to reinvent and apply a new standard. Our business model responds to the needs of clients on multiple organizational levels. Connecting clients with the leadership that can take their organization to the next level is paramount. It’s an exciting time for us and for our clients.”

For the past 11 years, Jim MacNee has established a proven record of placing C-level leaders, senior executives and members of their teams within the aerospace, distribution, life sciences/medical device, financial, manufacturing/industrial, technology, hospitality, gaming and tribal industries.

Founded by Jim MacNee in 1999, Maitland Partners is a retained executive search firm headquartered in Southern California that serves clients nationwide. Based on MacNee’s innovative insights, reputation and his ability to forge strong client relationships, he has attracted an exceptionally talented team to support the research and organizational development needs of the firm.
