Cindy Richards
As a Managing Partner with Brick Executive Search, I specialize in placing elite sales and marketing leaders within the Food & Beverage and Consumer Goods (CPG) industries. My passion is connecting incredible companies—from private equity-backed brands to Fortune 500 leaders—with the superstars who can truly move the needle across all channels of trade, including Foodservice, Retail, and eCommerce. By combining keen instincts with a vital personal touch, I have built a practice over the last decade that thrives almost entirely on referrals and repeat clientele, a testament to the lasting, trust-based relationships I forge by strategically introducing visionary talent to leading companies.
