Winner Partners Selected to Lead Recruitment for President & CEO Role

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C.— The executive search committee of the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce (MBACC) and Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) has selected Winner Partners, a respected executive search firm, to guide the search for the Chamber’s next President and CEO.

Winner Partners is a privately held executive search and recruitment firm headquartered in St. Petersburg, Fla., with offices across the United States.

After issuing a request for proposal (RFP) for search committees in September, the chamber’s 10-person committee evaluated numerous search firms before accepting Winner Partners to oversee the recruitment process. The search committee is comprised of business and community leaders from across the Grand Strand and lead by former HTC CEO Mike Hagg.

“Our selection of Winner Partners reflects our dedication to finding a dynamic leader who understands the unique needs and goals of the Grand Strand community. Our committee found that they possess the proven track record needed for recruiting stellar leadership at organizations like the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber and CVB, and we’re confident they’ll locate candidates who embody the skills, values and vision to advance the Chamber’s impact locally and nationally,” Hagg said.

Winner Partners is seeking candidates with a successful track record in hospitality or tourism, marketing and advertising, as well as Chamber and CVB experience. For more information on applying for the position, view the hiring flyer, or email MyrtleBeach@WinnerPartners.net.
