CALDWELL ENHANCES INDUSTRIAL AND AUTOMOTIVE RECRUITING CAPABILITIES WITH THE ADDITION OF MATT STENCIL

The Caldwell Partners International Inc. has enhanced its industrial and automotive recruiting capabilities with the addition of Matt Stencil as a partner in the firm's industrial practice.

"Matt brings a wealth of knowledge and a proven track record in the industrial sector," said Dave Winston, managing partner of Caldwell's industrial practice. "His ability to bridge the gap between current organizational talent and future potential is exactly what we need to drive our practice forward, especially as we expand our capabilities in the automotive sector. We are excited to have him on board and look forward to the positive impact he will make."

Mr. Stencil focuses on recruiting executives for companies in the automotive, industrial manufacturing and chemical space. With over 20 years of experience advising boards and the C-suite on matters of talent acquisition, human resources and operations, he helps companies across what is often a chasm between where their organizational talent is and where it could be.

Mr. Stencil joins Caldwell from a leading global executive search firm, where he worked with clients in the industrial markets and was a member of the board/chief executive officer, human resources and supply chain operations functional practices. Earlier in his career, Mr. Stencil was a partner with Gallup Consulting, where he managed a multimillion-dollar portfolio of Fortune 500 clients, leading multiple and complex workplace and marketplace consulting engagements.

A former Scarlet & Grey scholar, Mr. Stencil holds a BA in psychology from the Ohio State University. He also holds graduate degrees across disciplines, including an MBA from Colorado State University, with an emphasis on business strategy and marketing, and a master of science in psychology from the University of Southern Mississippi.

In addition to other civic interests, Mr. Stencil is an Eagle Scout and has been an active volunteer with Boy Scouts of America. He is also a former member of the St. Edward High School Fathers' Club, and former trustee with LifeAct, a Cleveland-area teen suicide prevention non-profit.

"We continue to make strategic additions of top-tier, content-driven partners who strengthen our capabilities and expand our market presence to better serve our clients," said Chris Beck, chief executive officer. "Matt's command of the automotive and industrial market is extensive, and we look forward to offering our clients an even broader, more integrated solution."
