The Moran Company

The Moran Company is an executive search firm that works exclusively with nonprofit organizations, foundations, associations, and other mission-driven bodies to fill key leadership roles. Its services cover the recruitment of Executive Directors, CEOs, and other senior posts, as well as development directors and senior fundraising professionals. The firm reports more than 25 years of experience in the nonprofit sector and provides nationwide service coverage from its headquarters in Kansas City.

The firm's stated distinction is its concentration on the nonprofit sector rather than treating it as one vertical among many. Its team includes consultants who have previously worked as fundraisers, nonprofit executives, and board leaders, and the firm describes drawing on that firsthand sector experience in its client partnerships. It emphasises an understanding of the particular challenges facing mission-driven organizations, and the view that the right leadership can change an organization's ability to carry out its mission and serve its communities.

Search work is organised around two main practice areas: executive leadership search, covering Executive Directors, CEOs, and comparable positions, and development and fundraising talent search, covering development directors and senior fundraising staff. Engagements span the full national market, which means searches are not confined to any single state.
