“Bristol Associates has been instrumental in assisting hiring several key Senior Management staffers, including CFO, GMs and PD execs, for multi property companies I have been associated with since the 1990’s. I have always been impressed with Bristol’s attention to detail and persistence when taking on an assignment. Bristol Associates takes the time necessary to understand the needs of our company regarding both the right experience level as well as the corporate culture. It has been my personal experience that they go above and beyond a normal client/agency relationship. In short, they care… and get the job done.”
