Ropella brought a very thorough approach to successfully solving Loparex’s talent acquisition needs. From the comprehensive Opportunity Marketing Piece to the detailed Executive Reports - Ropella’s process was key to bringing great candidates with relevant rich experiences. The SMART Search System drove a highly productive interview process with Interview Guides custom-built for our search, and a fantastic offer and acceptance process, ultimately resulting in helping us hire a Transformational Leader for our newly created Chief Culture & Talent Officer role.
Ropella provided a very strong slate of candidates for our Chief Information Technology search. The search was extremely well organized, the assessment support very helpful and at the end of the search we enthusiastically made a great hire. Early signs with Bob are extremely positive and his strong collaboration and interpersonal style are connecting well with the organization. We would expect him to create the right leadership and results impact, which we told Ropella was our primary goal.

Having first partnered with Ropella as a Candidate for a Key leadership role and then more recently an investment director’s role, I can say from firsthand experience that Ropella’s ability to provide its clients and candidates with a world class experience is second to none. Through their solutions driven approach to relationship management, Ropella excels at guiding innovators and investors to the best transformational leaders.
Ropella’s process is highly efficient and of the highest quality. They are well networked to find and place high-level talent quickly. Further, it has been my pleasure to recommend Ropella for searches. They've delivered high-quality candidates 100% of the time. Also, Ropella has successfully marketed my own candidacy for board positions in private equity companies. They are well respected by client companies when presenting candidates for potential opportunities. In my view, Ropella’s performance as a search firm is among the best in the industry.
Ropella took the time to understand our company culture and unique needs and worked tirelessly to identify and vet potential candidates that were a great fit for our organization. Thanks to their diligent efforts and expertise, we were able to find an outstanding CFO who will make a significant positive impact on our organization. I highly recommend Ropella to any company seeking to fill key leadership positions. Their commitment to excellence and dedication to their clients make them a true standout in the industry.
