We Believe Executive Hiring Is a Business Decision, Not a Recruiting Process.
The best executive searches don't begin with candidates. They begin with understanding the business, the challenges ahead, and the leadership needed to create long-term value.
Companies rarely struggle because they can't find resumes.
They struggle because leadership decisions become more complex as organizations grow.
Growth creates new challenges.
Acquisitions reshape priorities.
Leadership transitions introduce uncertainty.
Execution slows when accountability becomes unclear.
Hiring the right executive isn't simply about filling a role.
It's about strengthening the leadership team responsible for creating enterprise value.
That's why our work begins with understanding the business before discussing candidates.

ABOUT US
Why Group928 Exists
Group928 was built on the belief that executive search should be a business strategy, not a hiring transaction.
Too often, organizations are forced to choose between speed and quality, receiving resumes instead of strategic guidance. We believed executive search could deliver more by helping leaders make hiring decisions that strengthen organizations, accelerate execution, and create long-term business value.
Since our founding in 2020, we've partnered with private equity firms and manufacturing companies where leadership decisions have a direct impact on growth, operational performance, and enterprise value. Our work extends beyond filling executive roles. We become an extension of our clients' leadership teams, taking the time to understand their business, challenges, culture, and growth objectives before recommending talent.
Our approach is grounded in the same business principles our clients use to make strategic decisions. We recognize the opportunity cost of vacant leadership positions, the comparative advantage that exceptional executives create, and the value of making the right hiring decision the first time.
That's why we focus on identifying leaders who can drive meaningful business outcomes, not simply match a job description. Through a disciplined search process, thoughtful candidate assessment, and a high-touch experience for both clients and candidates, we consistently deliver leaders who are positioned to make an impact from day one.
Because executive search should do more than fill a role.
It should strengthen the business.
The Difference Is Our Perspective
We Think Like Business Leaders
We approach executive search through the lens of business strategy, not transactions.
We Understand Manufacturing
Deep expertise across operations, supply chain, commercial leadership, and private equity-backed organizations.
We Prioritize Fit
Capability gets executives in the door. Leadership alignment drives long-term success.
We Build Relationships
Our partnerships often continue well beyond a completed search because we focus on long-term value, not one-time placements.
Who We Work With
Group928 partners with organizations where leadership decisions directly influence business performance.
Our clients aren't looking to simply fill positions. They're building leadership teams that can execute strategy, navigate change, and create long-term enterprise value.
We primarily serve private equity-backed and middle-market manufacturing organizations where the cost of a leadership vacancy extends far beyond an unfilled role. Every executive hire impacts operational performance, organizational alignment, customer outcomes, and business growth.

Focused Expertise. Trusted Partnerships.
We believe specialization creates better outcomes.
Rather than trying to serve every industry and every hiring need, we've intentionally built our practice around private equity-backed manufacturing companies and executive leadership. This focused approach allows us to understand the operational realities, leadership challenges, and business objectives our clients face every day.
With more than three decades of leadership experience in manufacturing and human resources, Christina and the Group928 team bring firsthand industry perspective to every search. We understand the language of operations, supply chain, organizational design, and value creation because we've worked alongside the leaders making those decisions.
That expertise allows us to identify leaders who fit not only the role, but also the business, the culture, and the stage of growth.
Just as important, we believe trust is earned through honesty. If a search falls outside our expertise or capacity, we'll say so and, when appropriate, connect you with a trusted industry partner better positioned to help.
Our goal has never been to win every search.
Our goal is to help our clients make exceptional leadership decisions and build partnerships that last well beyond a single engagement..
