Client Reviews

"I had the distinct pleasure of engaging with Tom while I was with Cognizant, serving as the Global VP, Digital Transformation. In my capacity as a member of the Digital Business Executive leadership team, I was quite satisfied with my position with no reason for a career change until I met Tom. His presentation layer and approach, coupled with the visionary aspect of the new opportunity, was exceptional. Tom was able to articulate Accenture's vision and merge those into personal goals and aspirations. He maintained reliable communication throughout the process, and I can happily say this was the best decision for myself and my family."

Theodore Forbath Managing Director, Accenture

We contacted Level 5 Partners again to help us in the selection of our new President. We knew they had services that would help us make the best decision for our not-for-profit. We asked them to help us assess our candidates objectively on the leader qualities needed for now and the future.  Their assessment program started with a deep understanding of what Rainbows needed. Their expert consultants analyzed the self-reported personality data and helped us understand which candidates were most aligned with our direction.  They also provided interview support. The interview question bank and interview guides customized to each interview team helped us understand each candidate’s strengths, abilities, and their gaps for our role.  Level 5’s analysis and support made a difference in our decision-making. The process and information helped us uncover gaps and opportunities we might not have otherwise. Ultimately, we feel confident in what turned out to be a tough decision.   

Mark W. Taylor Vice President, Human Resources

"He's attentive to, and a resource for clients, internal as well as external. I have found him to be adept, and mindful of mitigating risks."

What We Do

Modern Client Meets Data Driven Hiring

One cannot truly identify leadership from a check-the-box interview, and no two executives are the same. At Level 5 Partners, we are transforming your search to a consultative approach. With over two decades of executive search expertise, the founder recognized that traditional firms, social media, and tools similar to LinkedIn were delivering a commoditized service that constantly fell short of taking your next executive from good to great.

This complacency opened the door to a new generation of progressive firms putting Level 5 partners at the forefront of innovation with expertly refined consulting-oriented services. Today, we are a leading executive search company offering PhD-led integration services, more profound candidate assessments, and in-depth investigative research. Take control of your future with Level 5.
