Ripple Effect Consulting

Our Story

Ripple Effect Consulting was founded in 2015 by two professionals who had worked together in the staffing industry and believed there was a better way to do recruiting.

We saw an industry that had become increasingly transactional—companies looking for résumés, candidates looking for jobs, and recruiters trying to make a placement. We believed recruiting could be something more.

So, we built Ripple Effect Consulting around two principles: technical expertise and genuine relationships.

From day one, our goal has been to do staffing differently. We take a hands-on, consultative approach to every search, working closely with our clients to understand not just the position they need to fill, but the people, culture, goals, and challenges behind it. At the same time, we believe candidates deserve the same level of attention and respect. We provide a true white-glove experience from the first conversation through the entire hiring process and beyond.

Our reach spans the entire career spectrum—from new graduates taking their first steps into the professional world to C-suite executives and highly specialized technical professionals. Our specialty is helping organizations find the right people and helping individuals take their careers to the next level.

While Ripple Effect Consulting is Denver-based, our St. Louis office gives us a strong presence in the Midwest, and our network and recruiting capabilities extend nationwide.

Our senior staff brings more than 65 years of combined experience to the table. But experience alone isn’t what makes a great headhunter. It’s the relationships we’ve built over decades—the trust we’ve earned, the markets we understand, and the people we know.

We believe our headhunters are the best of the best.

We may not always be the cheapest option, but we believe we are always the most cost-effective option in the long run. The wrong hire can cost an organization far more than a recruiting fee—in lost productivity, missed opportunities, team morale, client relationships, and ultimately revenue.

That’s why we don’t measure our success by how many résumés we send or how quickly we make a placement.

We measure it by what happens after the placement.

Our name, Ripple Effect Consulting, represents exactly what we believe: one great hire can create a ripple effect throughout an entire organization—and one great career move can change the trajectory of someone’s life.

That’s the way we believe staffing should be done.

Technical enough to understand the work.
Experienced enough to know the market.
Relationship-driven enough to care about the outcome.

That’s Ripple Effect Consulting.
