Nearly a decade placing senior leaders across aerospace, defense, and space. EXO was built on a single conviction: this industry is doing meaningful work, and the people doing it deserve a search partner who takes that seriously.
EXO stands for Exosphere: the outermost layer of the atmosphere where space begins. It's where the atmosphere meets the infinite. That's where our clients operate, and it's where we recruit.
The name reflects what we believe: that the best search work happens at the edge of what's possible, not in the middle of what's comfortable.
