Many of the most prominent companies, nonprofits and universities in the world choose Heyman Associates when hiring their communications and marketing leaders.
Heyman Associates has over 30 years of experience conducting senior-level executive searches for premier organizations.

We are proud not only of our corporate clients – we have served 60% of Fortune 50 and 50% of Fortune 100 companies – but also of our many noted academic, medical center, and nonprofit clients. We take particular pride in the fact that our concentration in corporate communications and marketing has extended across industries.
