Louisville Executive Recruiter
As an executive recruiter, Gilman Partners works with companies in Louisville and throughout Kentucky to attract top-level talent to their organization. Just south of Gilman Partners’ Cincinnati office, Louisville’s close-knit business community and strong manufacturing industry have led to successful partnerships with our firm. As an executive search firm, we’ve completed executive recruiting and professional searches for Louisville leaders at all levels—from Presidents and other C-Suite executives to high-performing individual contributors. We’ve made successful placements in nearby Lexington, Kentucky, too.
With the technology and tools that rival big national firms combined with our smaller-market focus, we understand the unique needs of privately-held, family-owned and non-profit organizations in the central Kentucky region. Some of our Louisville clients include Arrow Electric, Zoeller Pump Company, and Farm Credit MidAmerica.

Executive Talent Search Made Easy.
Working with an Louisville executive recruiter doesn’t need to be difficult. When we partner with clients, we become an extension of their leadership team. Every executive talent search or professional recruiting is conducted according to what’s right—not necessarily what’s easy. We work hard to understand your culture, so each talent search results in a fit that’s right for your particular organization.
Gilman Partners works with Louisville and Lexington clients across many different industries and functions to recruit top talent for executive-level and professional positions. Our talent acquisition process is complete only when a contract is signed, as we source candidates throughout the entire executive recruiting process.
