David is one of the best executive recruiters in the business. I’ve worked with him as both a candidate and an employer, and he’s excellent in both roles. As a candidate, you really feel he has your best interests at heart, and is going to bat for you. As an employee, he’s working with you to source the very best prospects, and to get your job filled quickly. David comes highly recommended!

Sam’s Club Head of Corporate Communications
I met Dave several years ago while he was conducting a search for one of his clients. While the position was not right for me, he did take the time to understand my career goals and we kept in touch. Last year Dave told me that he had the perfect job for me – and he was right. Dave listened to what I was looking for and didn’t waste my time with jobs that were not right. During the process, he was very proactive in keeping me in the loop and advocating my candidacy. Whenever someone tells me they are looking for a job, I don’t hesitate to give them Dave’s contact information.

Bain Capital Lead Recruiter
David is by far one of if not the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my career. David placed me at Holland Mark Advertsing 10 years ago. When I found myself in a similar situation in 2009, David was my first phone call in terms of discussing my career goals and opportunities that were currently available in the Boston market. David understands the discipline of marketing communications and not only acts as a recruiter for his clients but also as a consultant. He works very hard on behalf of his clients to ensure that the fit between employer and employee is the right one. He is available to answer questions and guide the process flawlessly. I’m pleased to have known David for over 10 years now.
Liberty Mutual Senior Marketing Communications Manager
The more time you spend in your career, the more important relationships will become in securing your next role. In working with a recruiter you’ll gain access to opportunities that you might not otherwise know about. But, not all recruiters are the same caliber. What separates David from the average recruiter is his relationships with the companies and candidates he serves. David takes the time to really understand what each group is looking for and what success looks like. This has many benefits. First, companies see David as an extension of their team which means if David recommends you, hiring managers will gladly take the time to meet you. Second, David is a great mentor and his in-depth knowledge can help candidates vet opportunities and ensure a good fit.
Forrester Research Managing Director
As an agency professional, transitioning to in-house/client-side can be a daunting challenge. David helped me transition my career from a PR agency to managing digital and social media marketing at ASICS America. Not only was he my “in” to the company and position before it was publicly posted, he also stayed in constant touch to update me with any news and was always available to chat on the phone before or after an interview to make sure I was doing everything in my power to position myself in the best possible way. I have never met a recruiter that is as excellent a communicator and am eternally thankful for his ability to build such a seamless bridge between employers and potential candidates!
Asics Manager, Digital and Social
It was a pleasure working with David. Always available for questions and ready to provide valuable suggestions/feedback. His knowledge of the job market and companies in the Boston area is outstanding and this surely makes things much easier.
He is very professional and reliable (overall the best recruiter I worked with in the US). Would surely recommend him to others.
