Partner Spotlight: Synova Talent Solutions

Synergistic Innovation in Executive Search & Talent Strategy

We are proud to partner with Synova Talent Solutions, a firm that is redefining the executive search industry. Unlike traditional recruiting firms that rely on static databases, Synova utilizes a "synergistic innovation" approach—combining advanced AI-infused search methodologies with a deep, human-centric focus on relationships. Synova is unique in their Senior Advisor Program, where searches are led by seasoned industry leaders who have actually sat in the seats they are recruiting for, rather than just career recruiters. This ensures a level of strategic insight and cultural fit assessment that is unmatched in the market.

How We Partner

Our relationship with Synova is a two-way ecosystem designed to maximize value for our mutual clients, particularly in the realms of Private Equity, Startups, and AI integration.

1. For Our Clients: The "Go-To" for Talent

When our clients have critical hiring needs—whether for C-Suite executives, functional directors, or technical experts—Synova is our trusted partner. Their industry-agnostic expertise and global reach allow them to deliver elite talent that aligns with both the technical requirements and the long-term vision of your company.

2. For Private Equity: The M&A & Roll-Up Engine

We collaborate closely with Synova to support PE firms conducting roll-ups and acquisitions.

  • Our Role: We assist with the initial company search and strategic evaluation.
  • Synova's Role: They handle the staffing assessment and executive search to ensure the right leadership is in place.
  • Together: We work in harmony to answer the critical operational question: "Do we hire, or do we implement AI?" We help firms optimize their headcount strategy, balancing human capital with automated efficiency.

3. For Startups: Scaling from Seed to Exit

Growth requires flexibility. Synova specializes in supporting the startup ecosystem by providing:

  • Fractional Leadership: Access to C-level expertise (via their InterExec division) without the full-time overhead, perfect for early-stage ventures.
  • Full-Time Placement: As startups mature, Synova scales their recruiting efforts to build out permanent teams that drive sustainable growth.

4. For Synova Clients: AI Implementation & Support

In an era where talent and technology intersect, we serve as the technical partner for Synova's network. When their clients identify a need for digital transformation or AI implementation to augment their workforce, we provide the strategy, implementation, and ongoing support to make that reality.
