Founder and President Allan Fisher has been the recruiter of choice to elite local, regional, and national accounting firms for 24 years. Leveraging his extensive industry expertise, Allan is driven to facilitate transformative change for organizations and candidates, alike. With a mission to further client strategic visions and goals, Allan has keen insight into accounting talent market trends and forces, enabling him to make placements that surpass industry averages for engagement and retention.
Allan originally began his career in accounting, spending two years with a professional services firm. From there, he moved to a division of a $500 million publicly traded software manufacturer. In January 1998, seeking to utilize his accounting background in service to others, Allan made the jump to recruiting, joining Accounting Principals, a national staffing firm. In his three and a half years with Accounting Principals, he was ranked as one of the top executive recruiters nationwide, winning the "Consultant Of The Year" award by the California Staffing Professionals Association (CSP) in 2000.
Knowing his unparalleled integrity could deliver an elevated client experience and his industry-specific insight could provide more effective talent solutions, Allan decided to strike out on his own, founding Premier Financial Search in June of 2001. In the 20 years since PFS' inception, Allan has cultivated lasting relationships with many of the industry's most innovative and respected firms. With a reputation for unqualified integrity and the climate of candor and unmitigated confidentiality Allan brings to each engagement, many of his clients now call on his decades' worth of industry expertise to function in a capacity as strategic advisor for his talent recruitment, engagement, and retention expertise - a role he considers his greatest success.
Today, Allan has established himself as an industry thought leader having spoken at meetings of the California Society of Certified Public Accountants, the California State Board of Accountancy, The Westside Firm Administrators Group, and ProVisors. He has been quoted in The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, and the San Fernando Valley Business Journal. Allan has been nominated twice as one of the San Fernando Valley's Top Human Resource Consultants by the San Fernando Valley Business Journal (2009, 2010).
