Wayne Miller (wayne@thrpartners.com)’s Summary
Mr. Miller has had over 20 years experience in Consumer Goods manufacturing, having held various positions up to and including Plant Manager. He has spent his entire career in manufacturing. In July 1999, he began his career in Executive Recruiting with MRI-Charlotte. After only 6 months, in January 2000, he was recognized in the top-ten of all recruiters in the MRI system, #1 in manufacturing. His success has come from his desire to truly make a perfect match, not just fill a position. He has cultivated many long term relationships in his short recruiting career. He believes the experiences he had in manufacturing truly sets him apart, he can talk the talk because he has walked the walk. Having been in many of his Hiring Managers' shoes, he can understand their requirements completely.
“I have a strong desire to place people for the right reasons, not just for the quick buck,” is Mr. Miller’s philosophy. He will be the first to admit if there is not a match, with either the candidate or the Hiring Authority.
Mr. Miller partners with some of the best companies in their industry: Maytag, Electrolux, General Electric, Roper, Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Allied Air, Aaon Coils, Hill Phoenix, Kysor/Warrenn, Hussmann, and Heatcraft to name a few. His clients look for the best in the industry and his most marketable candidates are those that are successful (demonstrated success), results-oriented, idea-generating, and self-motivated. He prefers candidates with a strong track record in the Appliance Industry and/or Commercial HVAC, Refrigeration, or Restaurant Equipment Industries, a 4-year degree, a stable work history and high standards for performance and work ethic, with superior documented results.
