Global Executive Search Agency

"My role as the Global Head of Creative for The North Face would not have happened without Damian and Janou. I think of them as intuitional industry experts. They are a joy to work with and I love their unique approach and eye to working with forward creative talents. They do more than place candidates in a role, they take an active role in thoughtfully constructing a career while delivering a strategic fit that maximizes the overall success of a business while thinking outside the box. Their global connection with undiscovered talents is unprecedented, and their experience, integrity, and respect within the industry is unparalleled."

"Burō is widely regarded for their deep understanding of the industry. They are trusted advisors with unparalleled knowledge and experience in the field.  They possess a rare combination of vision and methodology coupled with a keen intuition that has been honed over decades. On a personal level, both Damian and Janou care deeply about their candidates. They are objective, they listen and they provide insight and guidance to both sides. Always professional and always a pleasure to work with, they are the ‘go to’ people in the industry. Simply put, they are unmatched and without equal."

“It’s been a pleasure working with Damian and Janou as we source and attract exceptional talent for the organization. The team at Burō takes the time to understand your needs and intimately gets to know your organization. This results in highly qualified candidates that meet your needs and some ‘out of the box’ options that often make the most sense for the role and organization. They’re thought leaders in their space. Their years of experience coupled with their deep expertise and network in the creative space makes searching for top talent across the world a joyful experience. I would highly recommend this team to anyone who’s looking to find standout creative and marketing talent.”

“As a seasoned designer who led my own studio for over 22 years to the Director of Design at Wieden+Kennedy, I was a bit uneasy going into a brand to lead design creative. I immediately turned to Janou and Damian for their advice and coaching. Thoroughly and thoughtfully they explained the types of challenges I would have, goals I should anticipate, and, most importantly, made sure I was the right candidate for this position. I owe everything to Janou and Damian for helping land a job that I wake up grateful and well prepared for everyday”.

“I've worked with Damian from Burō for a few key hires on my Product team. The searches were quite nuanced and required specific expertise and knowledge of the product merchandising function within the fashion and footwear industry. I appreciate their speed in presenting strong shortlists and breadth of candidates where we have made successful hires, which reinforces Burō’s extensive network and reputation in the industry. Additionally their approach and care to the hiring process ensures a positive candidate and client experience. Burō is a collaborative search agency that delivers. I would recommend Burō to companies looking to hire top product and merchandising talent.”

“Janou has helped me tremendously throughout my career. In the beginning, by placing me at my dream studio. Later on, by finding me the world's best talent. She has the best eye in the business, but more important than that, she cares deeply for every designer she represents and works tirelessly for every client she recruits for. Bottomline, you want BURO TALENT on your side."
