"Mission Advantage is the best search firm I have used in 40 years. I highly recommend them to search for talent in the non-profit leadership space. Napa Institute retained Mission Advantage to hire an Executive Director to replace our leader of ten years. They vetted countless candidates, we interviewed many and hired two – an Executive Director and a Director of Mission Advancement. They were patient and open to our evaluation and discernment."

Timothy Busch, Chairman & Founder of the Napa Institute
“I am impressed by their deep understanding of our team culture and needs, and how they’ve tailored their process to meet them. MA has a distinct ability to recruit, screen and deliver one impressive mission-centered candidate after another. ”

"The Mission Advantage team is extremely professional, knowledgeable and easy to work with. From the initial intake meeting to the weekly updates, you sensed they were personally invested in finding us the best talent. Most importantly, they spent time to understand our mission and culture. Not only did they find technically qualified candidates, but candidates who have a passion for the faith and a desire to use their talents to help us achieve our global mission."

"The Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee has needed a Chief Operating Officer (COO) for some time. Mission Advantage Recruiting was recommended to me by my brother bishops, so I hired them and could not have been more pleased with the results. Our new COO is a highly qualified and dynamic leader with a heart for service to the Church thanks to the work of Mission Advantage Recruiting."

Bishop William A. Wack, CSC | Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee
"Catholic University worked with Mission Advantage to recruit a mission-centered communications professional to fill a senior leadership position in the Division of University Communications. The team really listened to what it was we were looking for, and the calibre of candidates presented to me exceeded expectations. I even quipped at one point: I can't believe this level of talent is available! The Mission Advantage team took care of all the details, and within months I was onboarding a new member of our team. We look forward to a long, fruitful partnership with the Mission Advantage team."

Karna Lozoya | Vice President of Communications | Catholic University of America
"Mission Advantage Recruiting was instrumental in helping the Diocese of Arlington fill two key executive leadership positions. The team conducted nationwide searches, followed a disciplined and thorough vetting process, presented candidates for consideration in an organized and concise manner, and were responsive to our questions and requests. The individuals hired made immediate and positive contributions in our work in the service of Our Lord and his people. I highly recommend Mission Advantage Recruiting."

Bishop Michael F. Burbidge, Roman Catholic Diocese of Arlington
“I enthusiastically recommend the services of Mission Advantage for hiring key leaders and staff, particularly in Catholic apostolates. I and our Board were impressed by Tom Pagano and his staff in setting up the search for our Executive Director, finding several excellent candidates with both leadership skills and solid Catholic faith, checking references, and setting up a thorough interview process that led to the retention of our new Executive Director who is a perfect fit for the Magis Center. I cannot conceive of a better search process.”

Fr. Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., Ph.D., President, Magis Center of Reason and Faith
“Working with Mission Advantage to identify a Director of Marketing was an incredibly positive experience for us. Finding someone who was both corporate competent in this area as well as mission-driven was proving to be a challenge, but their team took the hard work out of identifying the right person. They were both professional and communicative while ensuring that they did not bother us with the minutia. It was clear that they fully understood our needs, however, as they only presented candidates to us who were truly viable. Since we share the same core values, I felt comfortable trusting Mission Advantage with this important search. It definitely paid off.”

Stephen Henley, President, Legatus Intl.

They presented dynamic and qualified individuals with the potential and passion to utilize their expertise and experience to help grow our mission. Their commitment to quality, responsiveness, and attention to detail has made a significant impact on our hiring process."
