CIO/Technology Operations

PRACTICE OVERVIEW

With a tradition steeped in identifying top talent, we have successfully completed more than 500 CIO and CIO specialization searches. 

CTPartners’ strength in recruiting top-performing Chief Information Officers and senior technology and operations executives is a part of our heritage.  For 30 years, CTPartners has helped corporations build world-class leadership teams. 

We expedite your search process by leveraging our direct access to a vast number of leading technology executives in all major industries.  Our CIO Specialization team members each possess industry areas of focus.  This structure allows us to continually focus on and track talent in all major industry sectors.  Additionally, our team members each select functional specialty areas.  For recruiting needs a level under the CIO, we have experts with deep experience in infrastructure, applications/software development, enterprise systems, project management, sourcing, and architecture and information security.

Over the last several years we have seen the role of the CIO evolve into an increasingly critical function. In order to ensure that we identify and present the globe’s best qualified candidates for your search, CTPartners developed the CIO 2010™ model.  This innovative assessment tool uses six criteria to evaluate each candidate and then determine his/her ability to serve as both a CIO and as a broader corporate officer and business leader. 

The criteria includes: Business Acumen, Vendor Management, Technical Expertise, Tangential Experience, Global View and Career Trajectory.

Years in the field have helped us to recognize not only the precise skill set required to be a successful CIO but the intangibles. Examples of the many successful placements our team members have made include: Dun & Bradstreet- Chief Information Officer; McAfee, Inc.- Chief Information Officer; Reed Elsevier plc – Chief Information Officer; The Chubb Corporation- Chief Information Officer; and Washington Mutual- Chief Information Officer.
