Sean McBride, Managing Partner of AMPlified Search Solutions, has over 20 years of experience executing mid-to executive-level strategic hires nationally. Renowned for his comprehensive understanding of the design and building space, he works across a number of industries and market sectors. Sean is a trusted advisor and brand ambassador for our clients. He has expertise in search strategy and execution, a robust network of relationships, and is a vital resource for industry knowledge.
Prior to starting AMPlified Search, Sean spent 18 years at a larger search firm, cultivating industry relationships and knowledge. Over time, his role evolved, and he found himself less engaged in the day-to-day search execution. In 2018, he co-founded the firm to get back to his roots of delivering a high-touch, consultative experience and personally leading every search engagement.
Throughout his career, Sean has earned the confidence of leadership teams and candidates alike. Navigating their varying priorities and needs can be complex, but Sean prides himself on finding a way to marry the two. He listens and addresses concerns, is persistent yet respectful, and brings a unique multi-dimensional perspective to the process. He is masterful in guiding both sides with the time and care needed.
Sean is a University of Michigan graduate, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree from the College of Literature, Science and the Arts. Go Blue! He loves to spend time with his family, golf, and watch sports
