Sills Associates provides executive search consulting services to the Private Equity, Financial Services and Professional Services sectors. For Private Equity clients we focus on all positions but emphasize the selection of investment originations and portfolio company management professionals. Over the past quarter century our clients have ranged from boutique and middle market companies to global institutions and corporations. In all of the sectors we have served our search activities have ranged from the professional level to senior management. Based on our experience we believe that identifying individuals who have the skills and experience for any position is usually the easy part. We understand that the greatest value is provided by developing an understanding the unique culture and qualities of your organization and evaluating candidates based not only on their skills, experience and accomplishments, but by focusing equally on their unique individual attributes that will determine their ability to fit easily into your culture and accomplish your goals. We also believe that clearly defining and understanding the key performance criteria for the executive is a critical part of the search process. Our ability to recognize the unique individual who offers the greatest value to the client organization is greatly enhanced when we can easily articulate the criteria by which performance will be measured.
