Market Research

The Marketing Research team was founded 13 years ago by Frank Black as The Washington Group (TWG) and conducts executive search work for clients within the US and overseas. By means of a global network of affiliates, TWG has successfully conducted searches in the UK and other parts of Europe, Asia and Australia. Use of a national and international database, 46+ years of combined recruiting experience and powerful proprietary software provides TWG (now named FSA International) clients with the best talent quickly and confidentially. With strong bias to the healthcare and CPG vertical markets, the team has had a long-standing presence at the heart of the Marketing Research arena. Over the years, diverse searches have spanned all market sectors and served small boutique consulting practices, full-services global MR vendors and a select number of Fortune 100 corporate clients.

The team provides access to the hidden job market for skilled marketing research professionals requiring confidential career advice and assistance.

As an affiliate of the Management Recruiters International Global Human Resources system, TWG offers worldwide search capacity as well as a full range of human resources services. Sophisticated candidate profiling and guidance from an integrated relocation partner provide added value and substantial client savings.
