International Partnership
In April 2018, RM Nephew and Associates LLC formed a partnership with Cronin Partners, a retained executive search firm headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. Cronin Partners has a deep track record of global placements. Bob Nephew, Managing Partner at RMN, said “I’m excited about our alliance with Cronin Partners. Having a trusted partner based in Ireland will enable us to significantly improve our offerings to clients with needs in the European and international markets. We all live and work in a global economy. We want to be sure that we can deliver the absolute best candidates to our clients, wherever in the world they are operating.”
Mr. Nephew went on to say that “by joining with Cronin Partners, in addition to increasing the breadth and depth of our international sourcing, we will be gaining deeper cross-cultural understanding and a broadened insight into the global marketplace. This partnership enables us to offer premier, bespoke executive search services to our global clients.”
Claire Cronin, CEO of Cronin Partners, said “Our partnership with RM Nephew and Associates provides Cronin Partners with a U.S. platform and access to expertise that will round out our international reach, which until now has been focused on Ireland, the UK, mainland Europe, the Caribbean, and Asia Pacific. Both firms are dedicated to serving clients and candidates at the highest level, and our companies are aligned in ethos and approach. We look forward to demonstrating our enhanced services and offerings to both current and new clients.”
The cultures of the two firms are congruent: Together we “make every business better” with our services. We truly understand our clients’ needs and values, we get our work done without excuse, we openly communicate, and have near unfettered access to the talent pool.
