RFT Search Group

RFT Search Group is a dedicated executive search firm founded in February 2012 by Jason and Linda Ferrante. The company specialises in retained executive search for business owners across the Midwest, handling the entire recruitment process for critical mid-level to senior leadership positions. With 23 years of business ownership experience and 28 years of recruiting expertise respectively, Jason and Linda have built RFT Search Group as their family's sole business focus, not a side venture. The firm distinguishes itself through an uncommon 5-year commitment to every placement, providing free replacement support in the first few months and heavily discounted services for up to five years if a hire does not work out.

RFT Search Group serves six core industries across the Midwest. The company recruits plant managers, operations directors and engineering managers for manufacturing firms. In distribution and logistics, they place VPs of operations, supply chain directors and senior leadership. For professional services, they recruit partners, senior associates and paralegals for law firms, as well as CPAs and accounting professionals for CPA firms. Finance leadership placements include CFOs, controllers and finance directors across all industries. Industrial and construction clients benefit from their expertise in placing project managers, operations leaders and sales managers. Insurance sector recruitment covers senior producers, marketing directors and leadership positions in agencies and carriers.

Based in Livonia, Michigan, RFT Search Group serves growing businesses across Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. In Michigan, they operate across Detroit Metro, Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor and Lansing. Their Indiana presence covers Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend and Evansville. In Ohio, they serve Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus and Toledo. The firm has maintained operations for over 14 years in Michigan's competitive market, with 90% of clients returning for multiple searches. Business owners choose RFT Search Group because the company cannot afford to disappear after 90 days, cut corners on candidate quality or treat recruiting as supplementary income, as their livelihood depends entirely on delivering results that last.
