Tier One Executive Search
Your World Partners in Executive Search
Our in-depth sector experience in the global automotive and manufacturing industries, combined with a unique approach to talent acquisition allows us to build winning relationships with both clients and candidates.
Who We Are
Originally founded as Tier One Executive Search, our branch began operations in Detroit, Michigan in 2002. Our founding senior partner spent his early career working in the recruitment industry in Detroit and saw first-hand the hiring needs that automotive manufacturers were facing. Tier One Executive Search was born from this and has been helping automotive manufacturing companies hire the right leadership ever since. In 2004, Tier One began expanding with international offices, including an office in Shanghai and a research team in Mexico, to help automotive manufacturers grow their teams across the globe.
Over the 20 years, Tier One Executive Search became an established trusted partner in the most critical executive searches for major manufacturing companies worldwide. In 2019, Tier One Executive Search expanded into the automotive retail industry, dedicating a whole new practice to help auto dealerships find senior level talent. In 2021, Tier One Executive Search joined TRANSEARCH International.
