Our success in executive search and selection resides in the individual approach we take in working with our clients to understand their organizational needs, knowing where and how to find the right people to fill them, and helping both our client and candidate make good decisions.

Our industry experience in executive search is broad and we have made recent placements in the following industries: aerospace, aircraft, automotive, consumer products, defense, electronics, high technology, industrial/manufacturing, metals, mining, packaging, transportation, and truck equipment among others.

We have successfully placed Presidents, Vice Presidents of Manufacturing and/or Engineering and General Managers as well as other middle to senior manager level positions in most functional areas including distribution, engineering, finance, human resources, manufacturing, marketing, operations, and sales.

Our firm's practice began primarily as North American in scope but as our clients have grown globally so have we. FPMS now covers the Americas. Our main office is Central California, and we have an office in Buenos Aires from where we handle our Latin American search assignments. We also have key partners in China and Europe that we work with depending on the scope of the search.

While we understand that there are many recruiting firms who can provide you with candidates, we typically are able to provide you with a superior hiring result.

Many search firms focus solely on candidate generation. While this is certainly an important aspect of the search process, it is not the only one. Our thoroughness, from position competency specification to effective onboarding, ultimately leads to a better hiring decision and ultimately, a better business, result.

Placements made through FPMS routinely exceed the expectations of our clients as evidenced by the candidate’s exceptional performance within a relatively short time after placement.
