The people
behind the work.
Every client engagement is led by someone who has sat in the rooms you're navigating. We don't hand off to coordinators. We don't scale by adding bodies. We grow by taking the right work with the right clients.
Julie spent fifteen years watching organizations lean on rigid, tech-heavy approaches that forgot people. She built Career Innovator to change that. A former Fortune 100 executive, SIA "40 Under 40," and the architect behind $50MM+ in PE-backed ventures, Julie brings rare credibility to both sides of the talent equation. She leads Search and sets the standard for every client relationship CI holds.
Brennon has spent his career at the intersection of revenue, talent, and organizational design. Former SVP at Right Management where he led a $150MM North America sales organization, he brings the operating experience to know what great actually looks like from the inside. He leads Advisory, Development, and growth at CI — and is often the first call when a client's challenge is harder to name than it is to feel.
Lauren came up through data analytics and Fortune 100 delivery before finding her calling in recruiting — which means she brings a level of rigor to talent acquisition that most firms simply don't have. A LinkedIn Top Recruiting Voice and 2024 Loxo Talent Trailblazer, she leads recruiting operations and candidate experience at CI. She finds people other recruiters overlook. And she treats every candidate with the respect the process rarely affords them.
