Kimmel & Associates Launches Architect Division to Serve Growing Market
September 11, 2006 -- Asheville, NC - Kimmel & Associates, the leading search firm in the construction industry, has announced the formation of an Architect Division. In fact, the addition of this new division was forced by industry growth.
Says Charlie Kimmel, the COO at Kimmel & Associates: “Architectural firms were expressing a need for some assistance at a time when we were seeing an increasing effort from our consultants to approach this market. We concentrate on every segment of the construction industry, so transitioning consultants to focus solely on Architects was inevitable. Now we’ll just drill more deeply in architecture than we have previously.”
Rich Weinman, a consultant at Kimmel & Associates who works exclusively with Architects, further explains the evolution of the new group. “We’ve been talking to architects for 25 years, consulting with them, learning from them, even advising them. The shift to thinking of these companies as clients for whom we work was easy; their demand made it so. We’re meeting with great enthusiasm from Architectural firms who are booming and need our expertise in finding the best talent.”
Kimmel works nationwide to serve clients in architecture, presenting candidates for roles as Senior Architects, Intermediate Architects, Intern Architects, Project Managers, Design Architects, CADD Technicians, Production Architects, Draftsmen and Draftswomen, and Controllers.
Kathryn Cartledge is another consultant dedicated to the Architect Division, and she reveals how Kimmel & Associates can address such a wide array of positions. “We know more than 400,000 professionals across industries from architecture to real estate and development to construction, and we are constantly on the phones, cultivating these established relationships and creating new ones, keeping up with who’s who.”
Cartledge continues, “We don’t look for professionals who are eager to make a move. We present great opportunities to the best people, and some of them recognize that they can enhance their careers with the right move at the right time.”
