Korn Ferry Ranked as Canada’s Best Executive and Professional Search Recruiter by Forbes Magazine

Los Angeles, July 22, 2025 – Korn Ferry (NYSE: KFY), a global consulting firm, has been recognized by Forbes Magazine as Canada’s best executive recruiting firm. The firm was also honored as Canada’s best professional search firm.

“We’re honored to be named by Forbes as Canada’s best executive and professional search recruiter. I am enormously proud of our colleagues,” said Gary Burnison, CEO, Korn Ferry. “Today’s environment is encircled by a labor supply/demand imbalance requiring companies to reimagine and reskill their workforce; inspire, employ, develop and retain talent; and embrace technologies. This new world of work presents tremendous opportunity for Korn Ferry as a global consulting firm that powers performance.”

As featured in Forbes, the magazine partnered with Statista to survey more than 15,850 participants – composed of recruiters, HR managers, hiring managers and recent job candidates in Canada.

The executive recruiting list includes the top firms that specialize in placing highly qualified candidates in executive-level positions—such as CEO, CFO, or department heads—with annual gross incomes of more than CAD 100,000. The professional and specialist recruiting list highlights firms that place professionals in permanent roles with annual gross incomes of up to CAD 100,000.

In addition to being recognized in Canada, Korn Ferry was ranked No. 1 in the Americas earlier this year by Forbes and Statista — a top ranking achieved by the company in eight of the last nine years.
