Arrow Creek Partners is a boutique executive search firm specializing in commercial and technical talent for the personal care, cosmetics, and specialty ingredients industry.

We work with companies ranging from emerging indie brands to established ingredient suppliers- placing the sales representatives, account managers, business development managers, technical sales professionals, and product managers who drive growth in this space.

What sets us apart is straightforward: we’ve worked in this industry. Our founder holds a Chemical Engineering degree from Northwestern University and spent time in technical sales and product management within personal care and specialty ingredients- selling preservatives, actives, emulsifiers, and surfactants to cosmetic formulators and brands. That hands-on experience means we understand your products, your customers, and what it actually takes to succeed in a commercial role in this space.

We keep our client roster focused intentionally. Every search gets real attention, and every candidate we present has been genuinely vetted- not just keyword matched.

If you’re a company looking for a search partner who understands your world, or a candidate with a background in personal care or specialty ingredients exploring your next opportunity, we’d love to connect.
