For Companies

The Market Research Alliance team has successfully completed searches ranging from CEO to Project Manager. Sample positions have included COO, Chief Methodologist, Head of Advanced Analytics, EVP, Group VP, and Group President.

The principle by which the market research team operates is that the needs of the client come before anything else. We strive to learn as much as we can about the business issues underlying the need for a particular person. Once we really understand the need, we can evaluate the urgency and the urgency drives our focus.

We accept our client's staffing problem as our own, and we do everything we can to solve the problem. Interestingly, this assures that the person we place really fits and will thrive in the position, and that is good for everybody.

Access to top-performing passive candidates is a major reason clients choose MRA for sensitive projects.

The Market Research Alliance (MRA) was founded 22 years ago by Frank Black as The Washington Group (TWG) and conducts executive search work for clients within the US and overseas.

TWG reorganized in late 2008 as MRA to focus its entire attention on the Market Research field. By means of a global network of affiliates, MRA has successfully conducted searches in the UK and other parts of Europe, Asia and Australia. Use of a national and international database, more than 50 years of combined recruiting experience and powerful proprietary software provides MRA clients with the best talent quickly and confidentially.

With strong bias to the healthcare, technology and CPG vertical markets, the team has had a long-standing presence at the heart of the Marketing Research arena. Over the years, diverse searches have spanned all market sectors and served small boutique consulting practices, full-services global MR vendors and a select number of Fortune 100 corporate clients.
