We've Been There

Prior to starting the Torch Group, our founders, Ron and Michele Torch spent their corporate careers in marketing, sales, human resources and executive recruiting. Combining their expertise, they decided to launch a new type of executive search firm -- one that gives clients a variety of talent options and fills voids left by other executive recruiters.

Having sat in the chairs you are looking to fill, Ron and Michele have a deep understanding of what it really takes to acquire top talent, provide clients with important candidate insights and complete a successful, smooth and seamless search from beginning to end.

You can expect our senior team to be hands on, attentive and involved with every search project their firm takes on.
