Company Overview

NextGen Global Executive Search is the leader in defense system, aerospace, cyber security, and airborne power retained search. We recruit executives and leaders for DoD and commercial clients in the USA, Canada, and NATO countries.

With 24 years of solid expertise, NextGen Global Executive Search has a reputation with clients for recruiting exceptional talent using our proprietary Performance Based Retained Search process.

Our experienced team of defense system executive search consultants know the technology and global marketplace of defense contractors, aerospace manufacturing, electronic warfare, plus airborne power for military and commercial aircraft and weapons systems.

Our defense system executive search practice lead confers with the Client early and often to gain a clear understanding of your market position, corporate vision, unique attributes of the executive team, specifics about the role’s objectives, and the key differentiators between you and your competitors.

Rather than using “typical job descriptions”, our defense system experts determine the Performance Objectives including what the candidate needs to get done to be successful rather than what a candidate needs to have and what a candidate DOES with his or her skills, experiences, and abilities rather than the HAVING of these. We identify and recruit “A Players” that many search firms fail to do.
