AEC Executive Search is a limited partnership of experienced and highly qualified recruitment executives serving the architectural, engineering and construction industries. Each of our partners have years of experience in selected specialty areas within the AEC industry and compliment each other through their diversity. Skilled in both research and recruitment, AEC Executive Search Partners would be happy to use their skills to assist you in finding the best and most qualified candidates in your market and specialty area.

AEC Executive Search partners offers three different ways to assist you in finding the best candidate to fill your professional and executive openings..

Retained Searches:
Most often used at the executive level, retained search requires an up front payment of 1/3 of the estimated fee, the 2nd third to be paid 30 days into the search and the final payment to be paid within 10 days of the start date. Our partners have experience filling C level and P level positions. We will not accept a retained search unless we are absolutely sure that we have the experience in the specific area of the AEC industry.

Contained Searches:
We are delighted to offer you the opportunity to find your next employee using the contained search program. Often times, the job description requires a specialized search. It is not quite an executive search but it is above the normal professional description. A very senior project manager or a chief estimator or a procurement officer or a financial officer or an area manager are some of the in between jobs that require a specialist candidate but the job does not quite pay at the executive level. This method of search is very similar to the retained search except that the initial fee is reduced and the remainder of the fee is collected within 10 days of the candidates start date. This gives you the employer access to our research and reduces your up front costs as well.

Contingency Searches:
When looking for the best project manager, estimator, superintendent, or other professional level positions, most firms prefer a contingency search. The search firm is paid only when their candidate is hired. AEC Executive Search partners are experienced in this type of search and are happy to work with you on this basis if we are allowed an exclusive for a limited amount of time. Our partners will spend the time to find the best candidate for the position if we are allowed the time to research the market.
