We pride ourselves on our ability to listen, to understand the client's needs and to consistently deliver results time and time again. Our no-pressure tactics have allowed us to build long-standing, trusted relationships with our clients and the candidates we serve.  These relationships have allowed us to be selective in the clients we recruit for and have allowed us to build a reputation as a trusted advisor in the talent acquisition process. 

Our President and C.E.O., Patricia Spence, started Spence Search Partners in 2008 after spending several years as a litigator in Cleveland, Ohio. Her husband, Chad, joined the firm as C.O.O. in 2015 after spending several years in private practice then as general counsel for a corporation. 

Our Senior Recruiting Associate, Lavinia Mason, also joined the firm in 2015 after spending 11 years with a national recruiting firm focused on the legal industry in the Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego markets. Lavinia has been directly or indirectly responsible for a multitude of legal-industry placements during her impressive career.
