I first hired Jeff in 2002 to help build out my management team. Jeff works at strategic level and spent the time to understand my business before surfacing any candidates. Since he leads the searches himself, he spent the time to become well educated in the computer security industry. Within a short period of time he surfaced a targeted list of outstanding candidates for the multiple searches he worked on. Jeff has an uncanny ability to connect with just about any executive and get them interested in your company. He is a true “meat eater” that delivers outstanding results.

I worked with Kyle to do an executive search for a CISO at Commvault. A truly collaborative search partner, Kyle was able to quickly deliver a pipeline of candidates with a broad set of experiences, allowing us to explore multiple talent pools and identify relevant trends. Kyle integrated our requirements, objectives and pain-points into his search strategy and managed my expectations based on facts on the ground. This is valuable trait for an executive search firm: Not just take requirements but be proactive and transparent about what’s possible and set expectations appropriately. We had a great two way communication and frequent updates throughout, with no surprises along the way. We filled the role in short order and are thrilled with our new CISO. Given a similar opportunity in technology and cybersecurity, Kyle is at the top of my list to call.

Jeff is a rare and exceptional recruiter—in fact I hesitate to use the word “recruiter” as he was a true partner and business ally. I viewed (and still do as our relationship persists) Jeff as the ideal executive recruiter—experienced, great interpersonal skills, always looking out for you and trying to understand your needs at a very deep level and never forcing anything but taking the time to make sure every hiring decision is a thought out, well researched, analyzed and specific fit to your needs. The candidates he brings forward are absolutely top notch as is his work throughout the process. I recommend him strongly and will absolutely work with him again—one of the best in the industry.

I've worked with Kyle on several executive searches at KnowBe4 and have found him to be unique in his ability to customize search efforts and communications to our unique needs, challenges, and goals. Kyle's thoughtful approach to market and industry research added immense value to our search process and insights gleaned from his efforts empowered us to make more informed hiring decisions. I highly recommend McIntyre Associates for any executive recruiting needs in Enterprise SaaS or Cybersecurity.

I worked with Kyle to recruit a Senior Director of Product Management at ObserveIT, not only did he successfully find and recruit a highly qualified Sr Director of PM who is doing a great job, but throughout the process Kyle proved to be great partner in that he was able to utilize his understanding of the Cybersecurity space to accommodate the changing needs of a high growth venture capital backed startup. I highly recommend engaging with Kyle if you have a critical role to fill.

Throughout my career, regardless of which part of the world I was based out of, I have always been blessed to work with good executive search partners. Having said that, I can count on one hand those who are truly exceptional. Kyle is clearly in this latter mentioned category. He intimately understands not only what you are asking for, but more importantly, what you will likely need in the future and is always thinking ahead. Kyle is a thought partner, a trusted advisor and is incredibly strategic in his approach. His knowledge of the Cybersecurity industry is second to none and I always learn the latest and greatest during our regular connects. In short, Kyle is not a regular executive search leader, rather, he is a lifelong business transformation partner. If you haven't already had the pleasure of working with Kyle, I would highly recommend that you do so and when you do, you will regret not knowing him sooner!
