Dallas Executive Search Firm Fills Controller Position For Oil and Gas Industry Manufacturing Company

Carl J. Taylor, president of Carl J. Taylor & Co., a Dallas executive search firm recently completed an executive search assignment for a privately-held oil and gas industry manufacturing company.

The management team of a Dallas based company that designs and manufactures highly specialized products for the oil and gas drilling industry determined that a new Controller/Accounting Officer was needed in the company. The manufacturing company had experienced very strong growth in recent years, and due to this success and the increasing complexity of the business, it had outgrown the capability of its previous accounting person.The company’s recruiting, networking efforts and job board searches had not produced viable candidates. Furthermore, management did not have the time and expertise to conduct a thorough objective search, and the company had a history of challenges in finding strong candidates from outside the organization.

The company’s outside financial and legal advisor identified several executive search firms and executive recruiters to be considered for the search assignment. In the end, the advisor recommended Carl J. Taylor & Co. based on the search process the firm used and the numerous comments made by previous clients of Carl J. Taylor & Co.

Carl Taylor, the head of Carl J. Taylor & Co., spent time with the company and the financial advisor at the beginning of the assignment to ensure his understanding of the company’s need and the priority of its requirements. Carl identified numerous target companies and the appropriate person within these companies who appeared to have the appropriate background for the controller position.

Carl contacted a large number of potential candidates and identified several viable alternatives. He then presented a small group of candidates to the company. From the group, the manufacturing company selected a candidate who has brought the required skills and a higher level of sophistication to the position which the company desperately needed. The company and the candidate are extremely happy with each other almost a year after the search.

Carl J. Taylor is an retained executive search and diversity recruiting expert with over 20 years of experience in the recruitment industry. Carl J. Taylor & Co. executive search firm has successfully completed challenging search assignments for key board of director and management level positions in Texas and around the country.
