When we started BVOH in 2004, we had the vision of creating a recruiting firm that was focused on quality and the building of long term relationships. While so much has changed for us since 2004 I love that our initial vision still holds true. Every meeting that I have is for the purpose of building a foundation for a long term relationship. Sure it would be great if I found an amazing Controller for a client in 1 month, or a candidate their dream job in 3 weeks, but what is much more impactful is when I become a lifelong career advisor for a finance professional and when I become a long term partner for a company’s finance organization. The most valuable thing I can do for one of my candidates is to listen to their story, help them create a long term career plan based on their natural gifts, and then help them execute on that plan. The best thing I can do for my clients is to help them hire the Bay Area’s most talented finance professionals. There is nothing I love more than spending time with my husband and two young children.
