Retained search for CIOs, CTOs, and senior technology leadership. We place technology executives for companies modernizing infrastructure, scaling engineering organizations, or transforming the technology function.
Technology shapes competitive position in every industry we serve. We place CIOs and CTOs for companies modernizing infrastructure, scaling engineering organizations, integrating post-acquisition platforms, or preparing for IPO. From the executive seat down to senior technical leadership, our engagements are personally led by the founder and run on a retained model.
A technology executive recruiter that operates across the full senior technology bench. CIO and CTO are the lead roles; the rest are placed under the same retained, founder-led model.
Our lead technology practice. From PE-backed growth companies modernizing infrastructure, to public companies hardening security and reporting, to private companies scaling engineering for an IPO. We place CIOs and CTOs who lead the technology function into the next phase, not just maintain the last.
Engineering organization leadership for companies scaling teams, building delivery practices, or rebuilding the engineering operating model.
Product leadership for companies entering new markets, pivoting strategy, or building product-led growth motion at scale.
Information security leadership for companies preparing for IPO scrutiny, public-company audit, or post-incident transformation.
Senior leadership for companies migrating from on-prem, modernizing cloud architecture, or scaling platform engineering.
Data leadership for companies building analytics function, deploying machine learning, or converting data assets into decision infrastructure.
Tech ops leadership for companies stabilizing service delivery, hardening incident response, or maturing the technology run-state.
Senior technology leadership is most decisive at inflection. We place CIOs, CTOs, and senior tech leaders during the moments where the technology function has to evolve faster than the operating environment around it.
When the existing technology foundation cannot carry the next phase of growth, and a senior leader has to design what replaces it.
Disparate platforms, data models, and security postures have to become one operating model without breaking what was working.
When the engineering organization has to grow from tens to hundreds of engineers, the leadership requirements change before the team does.
Public-company technology demands change the role: SOX, security posture, reporting infrastructure, and disclosure-grade governance.
Senior technology leadership is one of our core practices. We place CIOs and CTOs across PE-backed, public, and growth-stage private companies.
The founder personally manages every CIO and CTO engagement, from intake call through offer acceptance. No hand-offs to junior associates.
Decades of placement work across cloud, data, security, and engineering organizations. Sponsors return to MGP because we understand modern technology operating models.
The largest firms in our industry operate under recruiting restrictions that limit where they can source. We do not. Your search reaches further.
Our placements aren't just role-fillers. They're matched to your culture and built for where the organization is heading next.
Yes. CIO and CTO placements are a core part of our practice. The founder personally leads every senior technology search, from PE-backed growth companies to public companies modernizing the technology function.
We work across industries: small-to-mid-cap private equity portfolio companies, public companies, and growth-stage private companies. Most engagements come during transition events: cloud and infrastructure modernization, post-acquisition tech integration, engineering scale-up, or IPO readiness.
Most retained CIO and CTO engagements close within 90 to 120 days. Searches in regulated industries, or for technology leaders with specific transformation experience, can take longer. We prioritize the right cultural and strategic fit over speed.
Yes. We place VPs of Engineering, VPs of Product, CISOs, Heads of Cloud and Infrastructure, Heads of Data and Analytics, and VPs of Technology Operations. Each search is led by the founder, not delegated to associates.
Yes. Many of our technology placements happen inside PE-backed companies during integration, modernization, sale preparation, and IPO readiness. We understand the cadence and demands of PE-backed environments.
Across the United States and Europe. Our practice spans saturated metros and regional markets alike, with particular strength in companies operating outside the largest urban centers.
Yes. MGP operates exclusively on a retained model: one search at a time per function. You will not compete with another client for the same candidate pool.
