Why are we here?

The global staffing services industry is estimated at $47 Billion annually in the US alone. The recruiting discipline is decades old, consists of thousands of service providers and tens of thousands of practictioners. How is it possible in a highly-saturated space to still hear such pervasive dissatisfied feedback regarding service quality and hiring outcomes from both candidates and hiring managers?

Doesn’t the cream rise to the top?

My name is Ben Lewis, and I founded Emblem Search because I believe the oft-quoted mantra of high-profile entrepreneurs that “people are a company’s greatest asset”. I believe an exceptional recruiting partner and talent advisor is one of the most valuable resources an organization can have in their corner. I believe there’s still a huge need among founding teams and investors for talent experts who are truly focused the business outcomes of their clients.

I love helping companies grow and connecting exceptional people with game-changing opportunities. This is my life’s work.

If you’re struggling to find the right person for your team, or you feel you’re just not getting access to or traction within the top 1% of performers, I’d love to speak with you. I always take a value-giving approach as a sounding board or source of advice/intel, and I’m grateful for any opportunity to meet someone new and learn about their business.
