Philosophy

Higdon Partners is unyielding in its commitment to helping clients address recruiting needs and challenges specific to the Asset Management Industry. We operate under the philosophy that only by remaining tightly focused on our clients’ objectives can we provide them with outstanding service and results. This translates into developing meaningful long-term relationships with a select group of client organizations. It means focusing on client needs with a great sense of urgency. And, it means taking advantage of our size, resources, and thorough knowledge of the Asset Management Industry to move quickly and skillfully in the successful execution and resolution of searches.

Our senior consultants bring more than 70 years of asset management search experience and a proven record in identifying, introducing, and closing on superior talent.


Process

Higdon Partners uses a disciplined, transparent search process to complete each assignment. After thorough discussions with the client and visits to meet with senior management and others, we develop a feel for the style and culture of the organization. Then, together with the client, we agree on objectives and customize a search strategy specific to the client's situation. In addition to helping us to accurately interpret our client's needs and goals, these discussions also allow us to more sharply define the responsibilities and qualifications necessary for each position.
