• "Milestone Partners has worked as a strategic extension of AFS and not only provided the expected top-quality candidates,  but they have served as a strategic sounding board to ensure we were thinking about our candidate sourcing the right way.”

    Tom Nightingale - CEO - AFS Logistics

  • "As a board member, veteran CEO and private equity firm partner, I am often involved in building or upgrading executive teams. Over the past several years, I have worked closely with Milestone Partners to fill key leadership roles at the VP and GM level. I have worked with multiple executive search firms throughout my career – However, in my experience Milestone distinguishes themselves from many other firms in both their words and actions. They employ a disciplined, process-driven methodology for finding, vetting and presenting top industry talent. The Milestone team goes the extra mile to be genuine, caring, passionate and focused throughout the search process. If your organization has a need to engage with an executive search firm that will serve as a trusted partner and an extension of your team, I recommend Milestone Partners"

    Stephen Fraser - Grove Mountain Partners

  • “I have had the privilege of working with Milestone Partners both as a candidate and as a hiring manager. As a candidate I appreciated the counsel and coaching not only for the role I was being presented for, but also for my job search in general. They genuinely cared about me as an individual and that I would find the “right fit” for my next career assignment.  As a hiring manager I was impressed with the time that they spent to truly understand my needs and what I was looking for in a candidate not only from a skillset perspective, but also from a cultural perspective. Matching the employer and the employee is part art and part science and Milestone has mastered both”

    Steve Guthrie - VP - J.B. Hunt

  • I’ve had the honor and privilege of working directly with the Milestone Partner’s team since its inception. I can truly say that there is not a more thorough or professional team in the industry to handle your executive search needs. Whether you are a client seeking a qualified candidate, or a candidate seeking a new and challenging role, you are in great hands with Milestone. I know this from personal experience. Eleven years ago, Milestone strategically helped to match me with my current company and I am eternally grateful.

  • It is with great confidence that I recommend Milestone Partners. My company (Thermo King, Southeast) has enjoyed a successful, productive working relationship with MPI.

MPI is relentless in identifying, vetting and presenting top industry talent. MPI’s value goes well beyond sourcing talent. Character and integrity come first in everything they do. 

Should your company have a need to add new talent, I strongly recommend Milestone Partners.

    Ed Corry - 
President Thermo King

  • I had the pleasure of working with Milestone Partners as both a candidate for a client search and as a client needing a placement filled. In both processes, I was the treated with the same importance and professionalism. The level of communication was second to none, when I inquired about status and feedback of the interview process. Also, after being offered the position, Milestone continued to monitor my on-boarding and my path in the new company. They truly cared about my employee experience. On the other side, Milestone really did their due diligence when researching candidates to present for the open position. They truly listened to what aspect were important, and took that theme and ran with it. It is a true reflection of a business partnership in the type of quality candidates they presented. I have worked with a lot of recruiting firms that will throw anything against the wall to see what sticks. I highly recommend working with Milestone on either side of the spectrum.
