Deep relationship and successful track record builds long-term partnership

Client

A national, multi-billion dollar homebuilder

Objective

Our client relationship with this Atlanta-based, Top 5 homebuilder has spanned nearly a decade. In that time, we have worked extensively to build deep, personal relationships across the client organization particularly in the areas of marketing and finance & accounting. Additionally, the company was working with several executive search firms and our focus was to provide a comprehensive range of services and become its primary provider of search consulting.

Process

At the onset of the relationship, our consultants began to participate in strategy discussions with the client regarding its current and future growth. This face-to-face interaction allowed us to understand, at the fundamental level, how to help our client grow purposefully over time. We were also asked to consult on internal organizational structure and potential changes based on our in-depth knowledge of the company.

Bell Oaks has filled the bulk of the company’s positions in less than 30 days and nearly every one of them with recruited candidates who were satisfied with their previous companies. Completed placements include Director of SEC Reporting, Director of Corporate Tax, Director of Audit and Controls, Senior Auditor, Manager of Marketing Analysis, Manager of SEC Reporting and Manager of Audit and Controls.

Results

We have watched our client triple in size during the years of our partnership and are proud of the role we have played in its success. It is most gratifying to our firm that the client views Bell Oaks as a value-added partner and an integral part of its overall growth strategy. Now, we are the primary executive search firm for the company—a true testament to the relationship we have developed together.
