• Locke and KEY Recruiting, Consulting and Hiring Services was founded in 2001 as a unique, flexible, value-based alternative to traditional retained and contingency firms.
• In addition to earlier industry work outside of search, Lisa Locke, the President and Founder, has recruiting experience at a San Francisco boutique retained executive search firm, at an incubator/private equity firm, recruiting for the portfolio companies, and at the large executive search firm, Korn Ferry International. She also hired internally for a sales and marketing department of a large wholesale distribution company.
• Locke and KEY is a flexible and unique recruiting, hiring and consulting firm, focused on recruiting KEY employees for your organization. We help you with the entire recruiting and hiring process, one step at a time. We provide VALUE by unbundling our services, and we offer you a "MENU" to choose from; you choose just what you need, and we do the rest.
