While we are purposely a small team, it is by design. We are not tripping over each other. We navigate within our closely tied sectors of defense contractors, tools & equipment, commercial & off highway vehicles and their associated components, sub systems, highly engineered industrial products and we function at the top of the organizational chart. We never try to force a square peg into a round hole. We use common sense, confidentiality and are task oriented. Our past and current overly satisfied clients become our future marketing presentation. The members of our team have worked together at Midwest for a number of years and share a strong results-oriented culture that promotes collaboration. Our team has a wide variety of skills and experiences but each plays an integral role. Being able to draw on a wide range of knowledge and experience contributes significantly to our shared success. Jennifer came to Midwest Executive Search in 2004 with 5 solid years of contracted free lance researcher experience where she provides our firm with recruitment services, sourcing qualified candidates, managing our candidate database and candidate tracking.
