Mark Enlow of Enlow and Associates understands the importance of a people-first approach to the industry of top executive recruitment. His 4 decades in the field have offered him and his team one of the best competitive advantages in the market: wisdom and knowledge. By analyzing industry trends and seeing the best and worst-case scenarios throughout the years, he puts every client first, ensuring their needs are met during the job search.
Enlow and Associates know that the process can be complex, and they provide full transparency from start to finish. While many job seekers are dissatisfied with the lack of communication from their teams, Mark Enlow has instilled the value of collaboration into his team, evident in their clients getting the best results. They also exemplify this by ensuring that the firm they are staffing will truly benefit from the experience and knowledge of the candidate in question. Perhaps the best example of this is that in the early 1990’s he helped rebuild AlliedSignal from the ground up during their merger with Honeywell. Although that deal was a 15 billion dollar project, Mark Enlow did not hesitate one second to source the best talent.
A Family-Run Operation
Mark Enlow is the President and CEO of Enlow & Associates. He runs this executive search firm with his family out of Silicon Valley. They believe this is the best place to set up a home base, as they can reach top talent locally, statewide, and on a large domestic scale. Their approach is different in the fact that they take on clients not as customers but viewed as partners. Enlow is proud that he can broker the relationship between some of the biggest firms in the country with some of the most prolific executives that can be found. Essentially, Enlow is most proud that he can serve his customers with all the resources of a well-run operation while still getting personalized service from a family-run enterprise.
The Enlow Difference is Staggering
Mark Enlow is a humble man, not one to laud his achievements – but after over 40 years of service, it is hard to overlook his incredible accolades. The team has placed over 500 executives at large Fortune 500 companies, notably helping to rebuild entire departments at General Electric. Mark also provides services to private equity and venture-backed corporations. The high success rate can also be attributed to the array of services on offer. Going beyond the traditional search and placement approach that most talent sourcing agencies employ, Enlow provides their clients (on both sides) with industry insight, strategic introductions, and superior retention based on best practices.
Mark has dedicated his entire life to his craft. At just the age of 24, Mark was instantly hired at the country’s top global executive search firm, quickly making his way up the corporate ladder to the coveted title of Executive Recruiter. Throughout the years, he has been nationally recognized in many communities. Mark also gives back through various philanthropic involvements, including serving on the Oscar De LA Hoya Foundation board and forming the Mark Enlow Family Endowment for Choate Rosemary Hall.
