We partner with clients to develop a comprehensive understanding of their business culture and the various factors facing their industry.

Filling Critical Roles
Founded in 1971 Krauthamer & Associate (K&A) is a retained executive search firm dedicated to building world class executive teams. K&A has completed over 5000 board and executive searches for a diverse client base across North America, Europe and Asia, with a heavy focus on four core practice areas – Aviation, Aerospace & Defense; Transportation; Private Equity; Financial & Professional Services.

Building Stronger Boards
Public, private, and family-owned companies rely on K&A for confidential, high-level engagements to address unique challenges associated with the organization of the Board and the recruitment of new Directors or Advisors. By understanding an organization’s strategy and culture, we’re able to assemble a team with the skills and experience that match the strategic direction of each organization.

Identifying Talent for the Future
K&A has developed several long term programmatic relationships with clients. These strategic partnerships were put in place to identify a proprietary pipeline of external candidates in order to maintain a steady flow of the most sought after individuals versus reactionary recruiting. Working closely with the client, gaps in human capital needs are identified that are consistent impediments to achieving short and long term goals. These partnerships allow K&A and our clients to monitor the careers of very key individuals that would be immediately impactful to helping our clients achieve their strategic initiatives.
