Judgment matters
More than a resume. More than a database.
A resume can tell you where someone has worked. It cannot tell you how that person will lead, adapt, build trust, make decisions under pressure or perform when the business changes.
Companies use different labels—textile recruiters, apparel recruiters, apparel headhunters, apparel industry recruiters and executive search firms—but the need is the same: identify and evaluate leaders who can create value. Our textile recruiting and apparel recruiting work is concentrated on senior and executive-level roles where industry knowledge and judgment matter most.
Before founding Precision Placements, Ken Edwards worked inside the textile industry as an Industrial Engineer, Production Manager, Plant Manager and Vice President of Operations. That operating background still shapes how we evaluate every search.
We do not simply ask whether someone can do the job. We ask whether this is the right person to create value in this company, with this leadership team, in this market, at this point in its development.

The strongest candidate may never apply for your job.
Many of the executives we know are successful, employed and not actively looking. They are unlikely to respond to conventional recruiting advertisements—but they will consider the right conversation.
Our network has been built through decades of relationships across textile manufacturing, apparel, fibers, fabrics, home textiles, technical textiles, brands, suppliers, equipment, chemicals, accessories and related markets.
Finding that person takes more than search technology. It takes credibility with the people you want to reach.
See how our search process worksExperience + technology
Modern search technology. Human judgment.
Precision Placements has always used emerging technology to expand reach—from launching TextileJobs.com in 1995 to today's professional networks, databases, AI-enabled research and digital search tools.
Technology can identify possibilities. It cannot fully evaluate integrity, leadership, chemistry, adaptability or whether someone will earn the confidence of the organization.
We use technology to make executive search more powerful—not less personal.
