Heller's Roots are in Cyber Search

Heller founded our business on CIO and CISO search. We were there when CISOs transitioned from network operations to business enablement. We were there when board-level communication became a crucial new skill for CISOs. And we are here now, as cyber leadership faces new pressures from bad actors and fresh challenges from AI adoption. Our extensive CISO networks span every industry, covering enterprise data security, product security, and increasingly, board-level executive cyber talent. As thought leaders in the CISO space, Heller enjoys a high degree of credibility with this vital and unique professional community.

The Heller Search team could not have been more effective.

As an HR professional, I was very impressed with how Heller Search respected our process and the role of Talent Acquisition.

Search firms can attempt to bypass HR, but the Heller Search team were very much partners to all our key stakeholders.
