ABOUT US
John F. Fiumano, CEO
Founding Partner
John Fiumano began his career in recruiting in the early 1990’s. Starting out as an account executive for one of the oldest executive search firms in the country and having come from a family of well-respected credit and collections executives, John was instrumental in developing the consumer credit and collections division within this firm. Within 4 years, John’s area became the fastest growing vertical within the firm and John was promoted to National Director of Recruitment. His recruitment technique was implemented company-wide.
In 2000 John assumed majority ownership of Executive Alliance, a generalized staffing firm owned by his brother. A year later John was joined by his current partner, Gary Zelamsky. They expanded Executive Alliance and began its ascent to being one of the premier executive search firms in the country focused on the financial services, credit and collections industries.
Over his career, John has conducted searches and placed exceptional talent at the mid-management through C-level. He has worked with major creditors, accounts receivable management firms, telecommunications companies, utilities and BPO’s. Within these companies he has filled a broad array of positions including sales and marketing, operations, analytics, technology and policy. John has lectured, authored numerous industry articles and is often quoted in industry publications.
"A lot has changed in recruiting during my career, but some things stand constant. Clients aren’t interested in who’s available, they want the exceptional candidate. Candidates want to work with a recruiting firm that has a solid reputation and can be trusted to present the best employment opportunities available."
John graduated from Manhattan College and lives and works in Tampa, Florida.
