KING OF PRUSSIA, PA — JM Search, a premier retained executive search firm based in Pennsylvania, has announced several key promotions, including seven new partners, a new Chief Operating Officer, and a Chief Human Resources Officer. This strategic move comes on the heels of another year of remarkable organic growth for the firm, which has more than doubled its revenue and size over the past three years.
Andy Siravo, a stalwart in the finance recruitment field, has been promoted to partner. Siravo’s promotion underscores his instrumental role in placing over 500 financial executives in the last three years. His expertise will continue to bolster the firm’s CFO & Financial Executives search team, which is anticipated to remain the top-recruited role within the firm.
Jim Ipema, a seasoned executive recruiter in the Consumer sector, has also been elevated to partner. With over 15 years of experience, Ipema boasts a stellar track record of identifying talented executives across various functions, including merchandising, supply chain, ecommerce, marketing, product development, finance, and human resources.
In response to growing client demand in the Aviation, Aerospace, and Defense (AA&D) sector, Bruce MacLane has been promoted to partner and co-lead of the newly formed AA&D team. MacLane’s extensive industry knowledge, gained from leading Global Talent Acquisition for several large companies, including GE Aviation, Newell Brands, and Novelis, will offer clients specialized insights into this niche market.
The Technology sector also saw the promotion of four professionals to partner. Doug Bower, Ryan Gilligan, Brent Lamb, and Jeff Slade have each carved their own niches, from recruiting C-suite and go-to-market executives for private equity-backed cybersecurity, SaaS, and tech-enabled services businesses, to placing leaders within the education technology and services sectors.
To further support the firm’s growth trajectory, Seth Gillespie has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer. Gillespie’s wealth of experience in transformation will be instrumental in leading the firm’s growth and operational efforts. Ashley Jaspersen, who joined JM Search in 2018, has been elevated to Chief Human Resources Officer. She has leveraged nearly two decades of HR experience to guide the firm through a period of significant growth and will continue to strengthen the firm’s scalable human resources strategy.
As the firm embarks on its next phase of growth, these new appointments are set to play an integral role in supporting the firm and its clients. This strategic bolstering of its leadership team positions JM Search to continue its trajectory as a premier executive search firm in the private equity industry.
