Our Founder / PresidentBefore founding Murray Resources in 1988, I worked in the recruiting and staffing industry for several years. I loved the concept of bringing the right talent and organizations together, but I didn’t like the way I’d seen it done. I had a vision of building a recruiting firm based on respect—respect for companies who trust us to help them with important decisions that influence their bottom lines, and respect for candidates who turn to us at critical points in their careers and lives.

Staying true to this vision has translated into growth and long-term success for Murray Resources, our clients, and our candidates. We’re proud of our reputation and the fact that over half our clients and applicants are referred to us by colleagues or friends.

If you’re looking for a recruiting firm that takes a different approach—one that doesn’t waste your time or try to push a square peg through a round hole for the sake of making a placement—you’ll like what you find at Murray Resources.

I invite you to visit our website - murrayresources.com - where you can hear from some of our clients about their experiences working with Murray Resources.

I also invite you to contact me directly at 713.935.0009. I look forward to hearing from you.
