CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

Executive Vice President & Chief Sales Officer 

Publicly Traded Snack Food Company 

I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Tim Barton and the Team at Barton Executive Search for almost twenty years. During this time, Tim and his Team have conducted searches on my behalf at several world class companies ([company names withheld]) and across functions (Sales, Marketing, Supply Chain, Finance and Human Resources).

During my 8 year tenure with [our company], Barton Executive Search placed over a third of our selling organization and a number of key functional leaders. Tim and his Team are a rare breed. They immersed themselves in our culture to truly understand who we are, how we operate and what's important to us. As a result of their unique approach of understanding our needs, our success rate with the candidates that they placed with us was gold standard. Let me quantify what this meant to my company; for every 1.31 candidates that BES presented to us, we hired 1 new Team member and our retention rate was in the 96th percentile and in excess of 60% of all placements were considered Hi-Potential. For perspective, my head of Shopper Marketing, placed with us by BES, was promoted to run our Market, Strategy and Planning group and ultimately became our CMO. This is just one example, there are many more. In addition to helping us build out our sales capabilities, Tim also placed our CFO, VP HR and VP of Supply Chain.

​

I have the utmost respect and trust for Tim and his Team, they consistently exceeded our expectations. They're incredibly high touch and manage the recruiting process from beginning to end.

​

I strongly recommend Tim and the Team at Barton Executive Search.
