Client’s Testimonials

“I have utilized Daubenspeck and Associates search services for over twenty years. Ken and his organization have helped me find outstanding talent in Finance, Technical and Senior Management positions. Daubenspeck’s level of service, responsiveness and professionalism has always been superb. I will certainly use their services again in the future and would unhesitatingly recommend them to others for consideration in filling mission critical positions.”

Executive Vice President; Manufacturing Enterprise

“With the trust and performance gained having worked with Ken it was natural to call upon Daubenspeck and Associates at a time when I needed to build out a new IT organization at (a leading energy company). Ken and his team first helped clarify the needed role capabilities and competencies across several positions. He then further found exceptional talent – technical, functional, and industry specific – to fill targeted key roles. The people Ken helped me hire were then and still are some of the best IT talent I had ever worked with. Several people that Ken helped source for hire have remained valuable professional colleagues and friends of mine, and a number of them hired at the company have gone on there and in other petroleum companies to higher positions and successful careers. I am both confident and proud to endorse Ken Daubenspeck and his team as an exceptional advisor and partner in improving business with the support of their capabilities. I wholeheartedly recommend engaging Daubenspeck & Associates to help recruit top talent and secure sound advice on overcoming key human resource challenges.”
