SERVICES

In 1994, The Burgess Group - Corporate Recruiters International, Inc., was established as a retainer based executive search and management consulting firm with offices in New York, Connecticut and Alabama. The Burgess Group has a proven record of successfully completed searches.

Executive Search

Diversity Recruiting and Training

In response to the advent of a global marketplace and the impact of massive changes for Corporate America in the 1990's with excessive downsizing and rightsizing, early retirements and general uncertainty, The Burgess Group developed a specialty executive search practice which addresses these issues in relation to mid and senior level diversity recruiting.

Corporate Governance

While Corporate Governance has never been easy, increasingly complex issues face the modern Corporation and place ever-growing demands on the Corporation's Board of Directors. Today's Board must deal with a complex mix of changing technologies, regulatory mandates, changing accounting standards, tax issues, savvy competitors and increasingly litigious shareholders. Effectiveness and discretion are key elements of meeting the Board's fiduciary obligation to the Corporation's shareholders.

Consulting Services and Coaching

The Burgess Group now offers our existing and future clients consulting services whereby we will strategically recruit highly qualified professionals to provide specific discipline and industry expertise on a per project and/or assignment basis. Frequently a growing number of profit, not for profit and governmental agencies that we recruit for are unable to hire full time permanent employees.

We Recruit in All Major Industries
Paul T. Williams Jr, Esq
"The Burgess Group assisted DASNY in the search for a new Chief Financial Officer. To ensure that our organization was matched with the best candidates, the Burgess Group quickly became acclimated with DASNY's unique role in construction, municipal finance and New York State government and helped to orchestrate a wide-ranging outreach effort. As a result, we received expressions of interest from candidates from the public and private sectors, and from several jurisdictions. The Burgess Group did an effective job at pre-screening the applicants so that more in-depth reviews could be made of the more highly-qualified candidates. We were very satisfied with the process deployed by the Burgess Group as well as with the outcome of the search, which wielded a top-notch CFO with extensive private sector experience and seniority."
Danny Walsh, P.E.
"I found the manner by which the search was conducted by Bill to be both professional and within our time and budget parameters. The Burgess Group provided us with a candidate slate that was representative, diverse, and met ourspecifications and expectations. The successful candidate for the position was required to have a strong managerial civil engineering background, capable of supervising several engineering divisions within the bureau. All of the proposed candidates that I selected and interviewed for the position pesented, met and exceeded the job specifications we required."

"Mr. William H. Burgess, III, President, is an exceptional leader who partners with Queens Library to understand our business and staffing needs to fill a role. Mr. Burgess and his associates invest time and effort to ensure they understand the organization and position requirements from the relevant stakeholders in order to refer highly qualified candidates, optimizing the time of the Queens Library staff. The Burgess Group participated in two recent searches for Queens Library in the past seven months. Our new Controller was a candidate of Mr. Burgess and his associates and Mr. Burgess participated in our CFO search. We were pleased with the caliber of candidates Mr. Burgess and his team provided for both searches. Each candidate was capable of bringing value to our roles. Mr. Burgess' background and experiences ideally suit him to identify and present unique, highly qualified talent for senior leadership positions, particularly in Finance."
