Kilpatrick Executive Search was founded in 1997 by a team of veteran HR directors. Their precise, agile methodology quickly gained reputation in the field of executive search. Today Kilpatrick expanded to four main focuses of recruiting and human capital development, with innovative digital tools in 18 countries, and worked with clients in 42 countries.
