Welcome to Maneva...
...the premier national executive search firm for the social impact and nonprofit sector. We are a minority and woman-owned firm with expertise in understanding client needs, curating exceptional candidate pools, and advising C-suite executives and board members through crucial hiring decisions.

We work with Purpose
Impact is at the core of our DNA. This is why we find transformative leaders for organizations that change the world, and also why we have our own community outreach efforts through a 501c3 focused on youth empowerment.
We champion Diversity

Our recruiters have extensive experience as business executives themselves, and use that acumen to understand the best candidate profile to join your leadership team.
We make it Personal
We take the weight off your shoulders by managing the entire hiring process, and are adept at guiding C-suite leaders and board members to confidently make important hiring decisions.

Discovery and Detailing
We understand your candidate profile, organization's culture, and create a custom interview process to guide your team to selecting the right new addition.
Building a Candidate Pool
We utilize our vast network, industry-specific resources, and AI sourcing technology to create a strong, diverse pool of candidates that may not otherwise apply for your position.
We screen candidates and guide your team through interviewing the strongest ones, helping you get to a final selection and securing the candidate that is best for your organization.

“Their tenacity brought fresh energy and new, diverse candidates at a time when I’d nearly given up, and they provided me with wise counsel during critical decisions when I was on the fence and needed a sounding board...truly extraordinary.”
- Managing Director, Large Philanthropy Consulting Firm
