Conley Search Group Adds Director In Boston

November 23, 2015 – Executive search firm Conley Search Group has added Peter Hamilton as a managing director in Boston.

“I have known Peter for over seven years and he is a respected advisor, confidant, and leader. We are very excited to have Peter join our growing business,” said Kevin Conley, president and CEO. Mr. Hamilton specializes in recruiting senior executives for companies and non-profits nationwide.

He previously founded and led Hamilton & Co. Executive Search. Prior to his career in recruiting, he worked in retail banking at Bank of Boston and in advertising sales at The Hartford Business Journal. He also served as a teacher and senior administrator in two Boston-area independent schools, Dexter School in Brookline and Noble and Greenough School in Dedham. He was a senior development officer at Nobles, where he used a research-based approach to fundraising and worked closely with executives from private equity, hedge funds, commercial real estate, asset management, bio-technology, healthcare, and higher education to secure financial support for a variety of building projects and endowment initiatives on behalf of the School’s capital campaign.

Boston has been an attractive hub for search firms. Aside from housing burgeoning financial services organizations, the city and its suburbs are replete with businesses focused on technology, venture capital, manufacturing, clean technology, consumer, business services, higher education, non-profit, and high growth — all looking for cutting edge talent who can keep them competitive in their respected fields.

Scanlon, Hunt Scanlon Media founding CEO. “This city has one of the most highly skilled, highly trained, and highly educated workforces in the world and it is therefore continuing to attract financial services, high tech, healthcare, and consulting talent at a record clip.”
