What Sets Us Apart
Helping you build strong leadership for your cooperative’s future success.
✔️ Proven Track Record
Since 1989, we have successfully assisted electric cooperatives in hiring CEOs, General Managers, and senior leaders. Since 2019 alone, we have supported over 110 executive placements across 40 states.
✔️ Industry Expertise
Our team brings deep knowledge of rural electric operations, leadership, human resources, finance, and governance, ensuring a strong understanding of the challenges and opportunities that your cooperative faces.
✔️ Proactive Candidate Sourcing
We leverage our extensive network and deep industry connections to identify and attract top-tier talent, including high-performing candidates who may not be actively seeking new opportunities.
✔️ Confidential & Objective Process
We provide an unbiased perspective and maintain strict confidentiality throughout the search, ensuring a smooth and professional hiring experience.
✔️ Interim Leadership Support
In urgent leadership transitions, we can connect you with experienced cooperative leaders to support continuity and stability for your cooperative.
✔️ Data-Driven Decisions
Our process includes market data analysis, compensation benchmarking, and leadership assessments—so that by the time a board selects their next CEO, they’ve reviewed 10 distinct pieces of information on their finalist candidate.
✔️ Post-Search Support
After you hire your new CEO/GM, included in your Executive Search package is the selection of one service from NRECA Consulting. For example, we offer transition coaching, organizational assessment or leadership goal setting to set up your new executive – and your cooperative – for lasting success.
