Hager Executive Search

Strategic advisors first, executive search consultants second. Since 2005, Hager Executive Search has been architecting leadership teams that drive competitive advantage for clients ranging from fast-growth startups to Fortune 50 companies across San Francisco, Silicon Valley, NYC, and LA. We combine management consulting with retained executive search, specializing in C-suite through senior director roles for revenue drivers (CRO, SVP Business Development), storytellers and innovators (CCO, SVP Brand), value communicators (CMO, CDO), and visionary leaders (CEO, COO). Our methodology goes beyond traditional search—we craft customized talent strategies, map competitive landscapes, and tell compelling brand stories that attract passive talent who wouldn't otherwise consider a move. The result? Leaders who don't just fill roles, but actively pilot your success. We understand your DNA, align with your culture, and deliver meticulously vetted talent that drives measurable business impact. Beyond executive search, we also transfer these proven methodologies to internal teams through our Recruitment Strategy & Capability Building consulting, helping organizations build sustainable talent acquisition capabilities that reduce dependence on external search firms.
