I used CL’s services for 17 years while working at the Marítima Seguros SA group (Marítima Seguros SA and Marítima Saúde Seguros SA) and its successors (Yasuda Seguros SA and Sompo Seguros SA), recruting several executives to work at the mentioned companies in all managerial ranges, such as coordination; senior and middle management; and, executive and technical directors. Nowadays, for instance, the Director/CFO of the Sompo group in Brazil was hired through CL.

CL conducts a distinct work in the search and selection of high-performance executives within the deadlines which are necessary to the indicated profiles, always surpassing our expectations—the reason why the partnership with CL and today’s Sompo group has become long-lasting and fruitful. Such fact has resulted in the selection of dozens of professionals that fit right into the team and, consequently, reached both company and each professional’s goals. I’ve always had the prompt service of CL at hand and I recommend its utilization by any company that may need its services.

I’ve worked with CL since 2009. CL is our choice mainly when I need to find out-of-the-ordinary resources. Whether it be the CEO for one of our companies or simpler positions such as financial analyst.

I can always count with its discretion, perseverance (and patience!), associated with Plinio’s good judgement, something which cannot be said of other consultants that try to “push” faster solutions, but not always better ones.

I recommend CL Executive Search & Interim Management.

I’ve known Plinio for over 10 years. We worked at the same company and established an unquestionable partnership 12 years ago. And that has been possible because he is one of the best people I know: ethical, friendly, loyal and humane.

As if those qualities were not enough, Plinio is a top-notch, hands-on, experienced and assertive professional who is extremely focused in solving problems, displaying a level of energy and commitment which are rare in the marketplace. Consequently, that’s how, in my view, CL Search operates in the market: “A company of excellence”.

I have known Plinio Cerqueira Leite for over 15 years and I can attest and guarantee that he is an excellent professional. He has a very strong client orientation, a high standard of ethic and quality in everything he does. I also know CL Search, a company which operates in the identification, selection and recruitment of professionals with the exact technical and managerial profiles which are demanded by the clients. This statement is based in facts and truths because I’ve seen CL Search “deliver” very high-level candidates that left the hiring company with a cruel question: “Which candidate should we hire?”, because the proposed candidates were beyond excellent.

In my 15 years as a consultant and a professor, I attest: Plinio and CL Search are the professionals that companies should hire.

I worked a few years with Plinio while I was an HR director at Leo Madeiras. Given the flexibility in his manner of work, adapting to company culture and understanding the necessities related to the candidate, he ended up becoming my main supplier and, in some cases, the only one. We filled several types of vacancies, from coordinators to CEO, and it is characteristic of him to work as a real partner. The agility with which he managed to acquire candidates is also a quality that stood out.

Once (maybe this was his record time), he was able to acquire a candidate in less than 3 days.
