Helping Great Brands Find Exceptional Talent

Glenn was a perfect partner in Amy’s search for a Director of Logistics. He listened thoroughly in our initial discussions on what we were looking for, he was great in sending over candidates quickly and sending over the right type of candidates, and he was always receptive to feedback. Glenn holds himself to a high standard, and it shows when working with him. I really enjoyed working with him on this search, and am looking forward to continuing the partnership for future positions.

Thanks, Glenn!

Glenn is the consummate business partner - who just so happens to be an industry expert in the search field. Over the years, Glenn has helped me solve problems by listening, debating, and providing solid and actionable advice. As a search partner, Glenn has done a great job by dedicating himself to truly understanding my needs, provoking dialog and forced choice over “the mission critical” versus the “nice to have” background. Combined with his endless energy and high degree of connectedness - he has always delivered. I consider Glenn a go-to person and would not hesitate working with him again.

Glenn has played a critical role in helping build my team at organicgirl from start-up to market leader. Glenn is exceptional at finding candidates that meet our specification, culture, and energy. Glenn is an efficient and effective recruiter allowing me to focus my time on moving our business forward.  I continue to recommend Glenn to non-competitive colleagues across various industries.

Glenn is the best recruiter I have ever worked with. When given a search, he quickly begins the work and starts providing options. He is consistent, in that he doesn’t just send you a cluster of resumes and then goes away. He has already done much of the work before you call because he is always looking for the best people who may not necessarily need to make a change, at the time. He develops people looking for a step up in their career or for an opportunity to make a bigger impact in their work. He is steadily with you through the search and he works hard to understand your business needs. Glenn makes the effort to ensure the people he is sending you are a fit for your organization. In the beginning of our working relationship, he took the time to come to our facility and even toured the manufacturing floor to get a deeper grasp on our industry and specifically our needs. I highly recommend Glenn’s services to anyone because I am confident that if he says he can help you, he will come through for you.

I have worked with Glenn and his team on several critical searches over the years to muscle build organizations I have had the great chance to lead. I have always been impressed at his teams desire to learn the hiring companies culture needs, the performance expectations,  and the work environment while finding the right candidates in difficult markets that can make a quick impact on the companies results and culture improvements. He and his team bring a true business partnership. Many of the hires he has placed have gone onto drive great results while growing into bigger leadership roles in these companies. I have never wanted to hire a candidate for the role today…but for the role in the future with Growth. Talent, Capabilities and Culture are critical to a businesses success and Glen/Team have never missed the mark on providing talent that helps Drive these Critical Success Factors. I would highly recommend Glenn and his team for any talent build you are working on…without hesitation.

Craig Hope
CEO & Director at Diamond Foods

I engaged NSG to find a qualified Brand Manager, a position I had been trying to hire for on my own for more than six months - a cumbersome and frustrating process without success. With the help of Diana, I was able to hire a candidate that I am really excited about within four weeks. Diana didn’t only truly understand the needs of our business, but also the intricacies of culture and environment. The whole process was flawless. In the end I was able to pick my top choice out of a number of excellent candidates, all of whom could have done a great job. What a wonderful problem to have! I never want to do a hire without NSG again.

Helen Lentze
Senior Director of Marketing
Redwood Hill Farm & Creamery and Meyenberg Goat Milk

We engaged Glenn to recruit for two critical positions to support our ongoing North American growth agenda – SVP Sales and SVP Marketing. From the outset Glenn was an incredible partner – he engaged fully to deeply understand our business and demonstrated a high level of insight into, and reach across the market. He worked fast based on our timeline, and produced an outstanding list of highly credentialed candidates. His professional, can-do approach took a lot of the pain points out of a process that can be painful. A consummate professional I’d highly recommend to anyone looking to build their talent profile.

Glenn really understands how to recruit for a high-growth, fast paced environment. He helped us find that mix of classical training and entrepreneurial spirit in our marketing hires that we actively sought out, which is not easy to do.  He’s highly responsive, moves quickly and really gets how to hire the marketing skill set.

Glenn was able to hone in on and engage candidates who were not necessarily looking for work, but intrigued by our opportunity… giving us a running head start on recruiting in a very competitive environment. He understood the demands of a variety of CPG roles, and as importantly, our culture. I always included Glenn in our searches across finance, supply chain and other roles.

It was a pleasure working with Glenn on the Director of Ops and Food Safety Director searches.  He truly understood what I was looking to achieve and in the end, he found me one candidate that could do both roles!  It ultimately saved me an extra person to manage and a lot of money!  Additionally, cultural fit is such a crucial factor and sometimes challenging to find a good match... Glenn understood exactly what I was looking for a found a great candidate.  I would highly recommend Glenn for any high growth business who is looking for key talent.
