Here are some examples of the variety of clients who have engaged us to advise them and find the appropriate marketing, communications, or marketing research senior managers. You may recognize similarities in your business situation and marketing challenge.
- A mid-market, family owned, CPG food/snack company was building its marketing team in a fast-paced, competitive market where innovation and new products are paramount. The Vice President of Marketing wanted a strong number two to partner with her to take advantage of the many growth opportunities—someone who had gained great marketing training at a large company, but who also had worked in a smaller, entrepreneurial environment. We found her Director with the right mix of experience and fit with the culture.
- A financial services firm created a new Director of Marketing role, focused on a specific practice area, to develop a marketing strategy with goals, tactics, and metrics to measure success. The practice area was under pressure to build and expand its client base and meet aggressive revenue objective. The Director needed to be someone with financial services marketing and business development experience who could build relationships with the advisors, who were skeptical of marketing, and explain and demonstrate the value of marketing to the organization. We met the challenge and found the ideal candidate. The person has gained the confidence and trust from the advisors and the wider firm and is now the “gold standard” for hiring marketing talent.
- An association that builds demand for agricultural products and partners with major, global food companies sought candidates who have worked for top-tier CPG food, Foodservice, and Quick Serve companies who want to leverage their experience in a not-for-profit organization. We have completed assignments at the Senior Vice President, Vice President, and Director levels in marketing, global, innovation, and partnership roles.

Candidate Benefits:
The best possible match
Susan Rosenstein Executive Search Limited strives to develop and nurture relationships with candidates. And that means more than learning about career histories, skills and talents…it means also getting to know each candidate’s personal goals.
Through research, screening and interviewing processes, candidates become more than information on a resumé or a name in a database. They become individuals with personalities, senses of humor, life stories, and business adventures. Here is what you may expect:
Understanding: We invest time in understanding our candidates to affect the best potential match—not just experience with position or management style with culture, but the right fit between personalities.
Experience: We have empathy for candidates because we’ve all worked in the corporate arena, some in the hiring function, some as supervisors, and all as the interviewing candidate.
Insight: Because of this business experience, we have insight into the job-finding process. We can offer suggestions for presenting career achievements, talents, and transferable skills.
Knowledge: We are up-to-date with trends in the marketplace, and can offer insight regarding changes in compensation and non-compensation issues such as stock options, virtual offices, and work/home balance.
Ongoing Commitment: We stay connected with candidates throughout their careers. After placement, we follow up periodically to make sure expectations are met. We take a genuine interest in each candidate’s career development.
