PFM Partner
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I was recommended to use PFM Executive Search for the CEO position for Canucks Autism Network. I was pleasantly surprised by the speed and attention given to us immediately. The methodology employed required various steps in the process and patience. Our initial desire was speed in finding the person, however, I have to say now looking back that the trust and patience we placed in PFM was well worth it. They found the perfect fit for us and we cannot be happier. I would not hesitate in highly recommending PFM in a search for an executive position. Not only did they deliver, but they made the process itself enjoyable. They are great people to work with.”

Thank you for shepherding us through the whole process using such a considered and inclusive approach. I think I speak for us all in saying we felt we were in control of our own destiny as it were, but very well supported with sage advice, some challenging thoughts and excellent coordination of all aspects of the search process. We were really happy with everyone at PFM, the level of candidates you managed to attract and ultimately, the final result.
I’m sure you have many, very worthwhile organizations that you help on an ongoing basis, but we do appreciate you taking the time to carefully consider work on our search, and thinking of our specific requirements and situation. I’m sure our new CEO will go on to create a lot of positive change within Brightside and we will keep you up to date with how things progress.

On behalf of the Board and Easter Seals BC Yukon, we would like to thank you for assisting us in the recruitment of our organization’s new President and CEO. When we first started working together on this recruitment, we asked that you and your team think outside of the box. It was very important because we wanted to elevate the organization and its future, and to do so we would need a special leader. The candidates you presented us with were just that. This gave us a lot to consider and it ensured that we were focused on what we wanted to achieve over the next five years and the appropriate individual to deliver the results.

Chair, Board of Directors, Easter Seals BC/Yukon
I highly recommend PFM for your next Executive Search. From the beginning to the end, the PFM team operated as an extension of our organization. What started off as a routine search ended up being much longer than anticipated (due to an unforeseen circumstance that was out of both of our controls). The PFM team got us back on track and stood by us as a true partner and continued to search and support our board until we successfully found our perfect candidate. We thank PFM for their professionalism, hard work, and support.
Shauna Harper
Board Director, Prince George Airport Authority
Thank you for an exceptional experience. This was a critical and complex role within our team, and at every point of the search process you worked diligently to ensure that our needs were understood as well as reflected in the candidates selected for consideration. I would enthusiastically recommend PFM Executive Search’s services and am confident in their ability to discover compelling and highly capable global talent.

PFM’s greatest strength is their ability to listen to many stakeholders and to gain a full appreciation of the culture and the leadership needs of an organization. It isn’t about completing a search but rather being fully invested in the process and finding the best candidate. PFM is there every step of the way and I can’t thank them enough for their professionalism and expertise.
Susan Ewanick
Former National Chair, Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation
I’d like to thank you for conducting such an excellent search to position and fill this challenging and unique role. I believe the panel was quite surprised by the comprehensiveness and diversity of the list of potential candidates… PFM certainly helped us see new opportunities and adeptly managed us through a fairly complicated process.
