Viewcrest Advisors is a search firm that identifies bold, transformative leaders committed to building organizations that deliver ambitious outcomes and advance social justice.

Our Differentiators.

  • We recognize that no one knows your organization like you do. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with you to develop a customized process; our goal is to capture insight and hear critical voices, so that your process reflects your organization’s unique needs.

  • In addition to recruiting CEOs, COOs and CFOs, we have an established track record for recruiting into functional areas such as strategy, people, program, impact investing, learning, growth and policy. Our clients are high-performing nonprofits, foundations, family offices, and mission-driven social enterprises.

  • We seek to become an extension of your organization, and invest deeply in understanding your mission, strategy, culture, and values. We conduct intensive market research and work tirelessly to find the right leader for this moment.

    We intentionally engage with a select number of clients at a time so that we can complete each search with quality, speed, and care.

  • Our team is committed to social justice and access to opportunity; we actively cultivate relationships with leaders who have varied life experiences as well as the skills needed to lead strong, innovative organizations.

  • As truth-tellers, we research, analyze and share what we’re learning – both from your team and in the market – to help you align your expectations with the best candidate fit. We personalize candidate follow ups and share weekly updates with you.

  • We act as your trusted agent in the market to engage top talent, leveraging vast cross-sector and cross industry networks (built over decades) to reach beyond the usual access points. We remain connected for months and years beyond the successful completion of a search.

“I highly recommend Kathleen and Viewcrest Advisors for filling leadership positions. In fact, the more difficult the search, the more you need her. I haven’t worked with a firm that invests more time and effort to learn about your organization in order to find the right person. My usual experience is that the ‘pitch’ is better than the ‘reality.’ This is not the case with Viewcrest—the pitch was great and the reality was even better.”
