Founded in 1990, The Barrett Group was initially launched to address the career development needs of mechanical engineers. Strategically located between Boston and New York City, the firm quickly evolved into a regional career management group for professionals within the burgeoning computer software, finance, information technology and biotechnology industries, as well as professionals transitioning from the weakened manufacturing and defense sectors at that time.
Soon after, the firm – already hailed as a leader among executive search companies – expanded its management and consulting scope to serve executives and mid-level professionals within the automotive, healthcare, law/legal, real estate, retail/consumer goods and transportation and logistics industries.
By 1997, like many career management firms, The Barrett Group leveraged the growth and success of the Internet – a tool that enabled the firm to overcome distance so that it could serve executives and professionals both nationally and internationally. We have remained committed to building our core staff at a central location, where we can more easily brainstorm and share information, leads and techniques, while serving a growing clientele across the U.S., throughout Canada and around the globe.
The Barrett Group serves its clients through a core group of highly experienced ,executive search consultants – each of whom provide a track record of success and high-touch service for clients seeking to land a position, renegotiate their current situation or change careers.
