Jeff and I have been working together closely for close to 2 years at INNOVYZE and I consider him a valuable resource of identifying top level talent in multiple arenas within our company. He has helped us find exceptional talent in our sales, operations, and engineering teams across North America and I am extremely pleased with his ability to procure ideal candidates, swift responsiveness, expeditious process, candor, attention to detail, and passion for his craft. He is a high skilled veteran who allows me to focus on my other responsibilities while I can depend on him to find us the best and right talent for our open positions from Leadership to individual contributors. I highly recommend Jeff for any company who is seeking a dynamic and highly effective recruiter that will bring them people who will ultimately build value to their organization…….whether it be an early scale out or stimulation of established teams. I give Jeff a double thumbs up and my highest approval!

I have worked with Jeff for over 8 years, initially while at Zerto during high growth periods when we needed to quickly recruit and hire top talent. Jeff's attention to detail and his discovery work to thoroughly understand the profile of people I am looking for combined with his knack at finding the right candidate for any role I ask him to work on has solidified him as a hired gun for me. He has an unselfish “client first” approach and he consistently delivers on every recruiting project with multiple candidates that are ideal for the role. He is focused on attention to detail, is patient with everyone involved in the hiring processes, and his ability in discovering the BEST and RIGHT candidates differentiates Jeff from the masses of recruiters. Jeff’s focus on early stage venture backed companies gives him the competitive edge, comprehensive understanding to work with hyper-dynamic, ever changing start ups in the digital transformation and disruptive IT sector. I highly recommend Jeff if you seek an unprecedented recruiting professional who will put your needs first and bring you extraordinary talent.

Founder Fitstack and former C.R.O./SVP WW Sales -multiple companies - numerous acquisitions - Disruptive IT sector
I’ve known Jeff for over 10 years and have used him at 2 separate companies as my recruiter for scaling out multiple Leadership and Individual Contributors for Marketing, Sales and Engineering across North America. The candidates he sends me are prepared, focused, well informed of my company and their responsibilities. Although I (and my colleagues) may not hire every candidate Jeff has sent me (us), I know that when I see a candidate Jeff has sent me, I give that email special attention. Jeff has consistently found me the right and best candidates for all of my openings and I have complete trust that he will always complete a project on time or sooner, with multiple candidates that I would want to hire. I would never hesitate in referring him to any company seeking to expand, replace or true-up organizations seeking to obtain people in executive leadership or individual contributor roles who will drive and support revenue, especially in the early to mid-staged Disruptive/Emerging Markets of IT.
