StevenDouglas, a leading boutique Executive Search, Technology Staffing and Project & Interim Resources firm, has announced record-breaking revenue for its Search division and a sweeping collection of industry honors in 2025/2026. The firm reported that June 2026 was the highest revenue month in its 43-year history, with Q2 2026 being the largest quarter ever, putting the business 34% ahead of last year. Year-to-date, StevenDouglas is 27% ahead of last year, on pace for its best year ever.
The accolades reflect the firm's commitment to excellent client outcomes and successful organic growth and geographic expansion. StevenDouglas has driven momentum in key Sun Belt markets while reinforcing its dominance in Florida, home of its corporate headquarters since 1983. The firm has been recognized by Inc. 5000 as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America and has been named the #1 Executive Search Firm in South Florida by the South Florida Business Journal for consecutive years over the last decade. It also appears on the South Florida Business Journal's list of Top 100 Private Companies and has been recognized as the Top Executive Search Firm in North Texas by the Dallas Business Journal and the Largest Direct Hire & Permanent Placement Firm in the Houston Area by the Houston Business Journal.
Hunt Scanlon Media, which has defined the senior talent management sector for over 32 years, has continually recognized StevenDouglas in the Top 50 Executive Search Firms in the Americas, as well as in specialized rankings such as the 'Financial Sixty', Top 50 Leaders in Healthcare Services Search, Top 65 Most Prominent Executive Search Firms in the Nonprofit Sector, and Top 60 Recruiting Firms in Canada. These recognitions span the firm's capabilities across various industries and geographies, validating its position as a full-service recruiting powerhouse across the Americas with global reach.
"Every recognition we receive is a reflection of the people behind it," said Shore. "Awards are deeply gratifying, but what matters most to us is the impact we have on our clients, candidates, and communities. These accolades reflect the effort of an incredible team of professionals who show up every day committed to delivering outcomes that change lives and businesses."
StevenDouglas’ recognitions are part of a broader organic growth story. Over the past five years, the firm has more than doubled in size and is on track to exceed $130 million in annual revenue, with a network spanning more than 25 offices across the United States and internationally, including presence in Canada and Latin America. This growth results from a deliberate, culture-first philosophy that prioritizes hiring exceptional talent, investing in long-term client relationships, and maintaining counter-cyclical conviction during economic uncertainty, as demonstrated following the 2008 financial crisis and the 2020 pandemic.
