Executive Search

THREE REASONS WHY SWEIBEL ARTS SHOULD RUN YOUR SEARCH FOR MARKETING HIRES

Reason #1: We bring decades of experience and a massive network of contacts to our clients. Because we specialize in arts marketing, we can cultivate, vet, and deliver qualified candidates you won’t find on your own, including candidates from underrepresented communities.  

Reason #2: You get more from us than from other recruiting firms. Our work starts with a mini marketing audit that elevates your unique needs and opportunities. It ends only after an onboarding that includes specific, actionable recommendations to create forward momentum.  

Reason #3: Even though we deliver more than other recruiting forms, we’re more affordable.

You can’t afford not to turn an expensive transition into a smart investment.

Here’s what some clients have said about our executive search services:

Asolo Repertory Theatre

“Asolo Rep worked with SAIL to identify a Marketing & Communications Director who would help to propel the organization forward as we emerged from the Covid-19 pandemic. Throughout the process, our search benefited from their extensive knowledge of arts marketing, connections within the field, and skill at distilling conversations with stakeholders across the organization into a focused list of skills and abilities for the position. SAIL was transparent, kept us on track with a very tight timeline, and we could not be more pleased with the result!” - Corinne Deckard, General Manager
