PARTNERS – INTRODUCTION

It takes a GameChanger to find a GameChanger.

That’s why each of our partners compiled an extensive and varied business background before joining Top Gun Ventures – We are experts in retained executive search and know how to identify, evaluate and recruit only those senior leaders who are proven GameChangers at the jobs they perform. We have a relentless focus on presenting the best and most accomplished executives to every one of our clients.

All of the partners at Top Gun Ventures have a dynamic proven blend of real business experience and search expertise.

Our partners handle every aspect of the search – from the initial requirements gathering to onboarding.
Our partners do all the work. We conduct all the research, make all the calls, interview all the candidates, and create and present all the written analysis. We do not have junior staffers involved in the work you pay us to do. Eliminating the junior staffers and backroom team has enabled us to bring our clients significantly better candidates in half the time. This 100% partner involvement approach yields unprecedented results: executives who are not actively looking for their next assignment, but instead are heads-down leaders and GameChanging performers.

We conduct fewer executive searches per year, as compared to our competitors, and we complete 100% of them. Our approach allows us to truly understand our client, the company culture and the objective requirements and success factors of the task, position and culture we are recruiting for, and leads to significant repeat and referral business. Since 2002, our business model has been validated by more than a decade of growth in changing and difficult markets.

Top Gun Ventures is changing the game in executive search.

Top Gun Ventures has set a new bar in the industry for talent. We specialize in recruiting a unique kind of executive – GameChangers – and we bring the expertise and passion to identify, engage and deliver the right executive, the first time. Most importantly, our candidates get the job done and make our clients successful, and we back this up with a 100% guarantee that our executives will achieve the tasks they were hired for.

We are passionate about finding our clients the most qualified executives that fit well within an organization, deliver superior results in both good and bad markets, and achieve or exceed the tasks they were hired for.


Traditional search firms declare success when the candidate is selected. The Partners at Top Gun Ventures declare success when the candidate delivers on the tasks they were hired to achieve… that’s a significant difference in results for our clients!
