Why Choose Naviga?
We Deliver. They Talk.
To move your company in a new direction from where it’s been before, you need someone outside of your network and even outside of your industry. That’s where we received a lot of value from hiring Naviga as our sales executive search firm. They were able to cast a wide net and give us the confidence to know that we were finding the best Sales Leader. We got exactly what we were hoping for.

Naviga did a really good job of representing my interests and representing the interest of the client equally. It restored my faith in dealing with recruiters and set a new standard.

Throughout the whole process, Naviga was super organized and really provided a lot of great background information.
Jennifer Folsom, Sr. Sales Executive
Selerix Systems
The wonderful part about working with Naviga is that I didn’t feel like just a number, I felt like a neighbor. I felt like they were equal parts advocates of me and an ambassador for the client which was a welcome surprise.
Amy Barkley, Director of Enterprise Sales

I felt very comfortable and confident in what Briggs was looking for. I could tell that you had worked with this company before and had a good feel for them. And that meant a lot.
David Fee, Sales Manager
Placed with our client Briggs Equipment
I wanted to thank you for being responsible for this amazing new opportunity. Today was my first day and I felt like I was in Oz. I stepped out of a black and white old life into a new life in technicolor. You are my Glenda. Thank you!

The quality of candidates Naviga presented to us were superb. We did not receive any random or unqualified candidates, and the ones that were submitted met all our needs. There was great communication during the process and resulted in two great finalists for our position.
Rich Vecchio
Recruiting Manager, PGA Tour
Working with Naviga made me feel like I had a partner who was very invested in me and that made the entire experience simple. Someone who could reach out to the company so I didn’t have to do all of the legwork. I could really focus on what mattered to me.
Robyn Spanier, Senior Director of New Business Intake
Placed with our client DLA Piper
The change has been night and day, quality and quantity, since bringing on the 4 Sales Managers Naviga found for us. We are now focused on strategic areas and are in front of our customers repeatedly, driving the sales force, retention of clients and frequency – the sales hires lived up to their word, couldn’t be better, we’re having double-digit growth year after year.
Michael O’Neill
President, WERMA-USA
Naviga’s response time, as far as the cycle from needing to hire to we have hired, was timely. I definitely felt like whenever needed, Tracey or Kathleen would reach out. There was constant communication.
Cara Swanson
Business Development, Equipco
I felt I was prepared and it did give me a little bit of an advantage knowing some of the details about the role and where they were going with this opportunity and where the company was going as a whole.
Fred Tort, Senior Talent Acquisition Recruiter
Placed with our client InTegrum Resources
I really appreciated the way I could talk to the Naviga recruiter casually. She shared a wealth of information.
