Booming with tourism and trade, Los Angeles is recognized as the nation’s creative capital as it has become the center for the entertainment industry. Globally recognized entertainment companies include Warner Bros., NBC Universal, Paramount, Walt Disney, CAA and MTV. For executive search firms Los Angeles is a marketplace for organizations in many industries to seek People/HR executives to help quickly grow and build a great company culture.
Hollywood aside, Greater Los Angeles’ Silicon Beach has developed a strong presence in technology and innovation with particular expertise in gaming, digital media, software, ecommerce, animation, biotech, and aerospace tech, with Los Angeles now a hub for the rocket and aerospace industry. Some notable leaders include Relativity Space, Boeing, The Aerospace Corporation, Lucid Circuits, SpinLaunch, SpaceX and RocketLab. We have a wide range of industry experience, from placing CAA’s Head of Talent to Relativity Space’s and SpinLaunch’s Heads of People (see more of our client examples). Aside from the large variety of job opportunities, people are flocking to Los Angeles for its year-round warm weather, diverse neighborhoods, amazing educational opportunities and champion winning sports teams.
Sprawling for dozens of miles in every direction, the Greater Los Angeles area encompasses four counties (Los Angeles County, Orange County, San Bernardino County and Ventura County) and includes, most notably, Santa Monica, Burbank, Pasadena, Irvine, Long Beach, Culver City, and Marina del Ray, with Santa Barbara often thrown into the mix.
