ExecRep

ExecRep is a boutique recruiting firm based in San Francisco with big aspirations and a team-based approach to recruiting. They operate under the golden rule of recruiting: "We don't sell. We listen, advise, and inform," maintaining higher ethical standards that they believe should exist in the recruiting industry.

ExecRep operates as a boutique recruiting firm that emphasizes ethical practices and intelligent recruiting over quota-driven approaches. The company trains their recruiters to function as agents, holding them to higher ethical standards than typically found in the recruiting industry. Their philosophy centers around listening, advising, and informing rather than aggressive selling tactics, creating a positive and motivating environment where team members can work within their expertise and comfort zones.

The firm specializes exclusively in the construction industry and actively follows market trends to adapt their services accordingly. During the recession, they successfully pivoted to focus on publicly funded projects when private development slowed. From 2013 to present, their primary focus has been multi-family construction, though they have expanded attention to High Tech and Commercial construction projects starting in early 2016 as these markets began heating up.

ExecRep has established strong relationships and agreements with some of the largest REITs, Developers, and General Contractors in the world, while also maintaining partnerships with smaller companies where presidents and owners work hands-on alongside their teams. This dual approach allows them to serve clients across the entire spectrum of the construction industry.

The company was founded by Nic Robinson, who brings a unique background combining family construction business experience, real estate licensing, and subcontracting management. His experience includes reducing debt by over 70% in a construction subcontracting company during the 2009 recession and facilitating its successful sale, demonstrating his understanding of both construction operations and business challenges.
