We live in this market.
Talon is based in Miami Beach. We know the South Florida operators — who built what in Doral's logistics corridor, who runs finance for the family offices in Brickell, and who's quietly ready for the next seat.

FAQ
Miami executive search, answered.
What does a Miami executive search firm do?
An executive search firm finds and recruits senior leaders — CEOs, CFOs, COOs, VPs — who usually aren't applying for jobs. Talon maps the South Florida and national market, approaches proven operators confidentially, assesses them for capability and culture fit, and presents a short list of candidates who can perform on day one.
Which areas of South Florida do you serve?
All of South Florida — Miami-Dade (Miami Beach, Brickell, Coral Gables, Doral, Aventura), Broward (Fort Lauderdale, Weston) and Palm Beach County (Boca Raton, West Palm Beach). We also run searches nationwide and across Latin America for Miami-based companies.
What industries do you recruit for in Miami?
Third-party manufacturing, trade finance, construction, REITs, private equity portfolio companies, AI, energy, defense contractors and data centers. We specialize in nine sectors rather than recruiting for everyone.
What size companies does Talon work with?
Ambitious, growth-stage companies from roughly $500K to $100M+ in revenue — including founder-led businesses, family offices and PE-backed portfolio companies.
Can you run a confidential executive search?
Yes. Many of our searches replace a sitting executive or open a role the company can't announce. We never post confidential roles publicly and approach candidates directly, under your direction.
How long does an executive search take?
Executive searches take time, but the right hire is worth the wait. Depending on the role, a Talon search can take as little as 3 days to 2 weeks.
How much does an executive search cost?
Executive search fees vary based on hiring volume and industry. We'll walk through the role on a discovery call and give you a clear quote before the search starts.
How is Talon different from a staffing agency?
Staffing agencies post jobs and forward resumes. We diagnose the business first, hunt for operators who aren't on the market, assess them in depth, and follow up through the first 90 days. That's why our post-placement turnover is 8% versus a 42% national average.
