Fulfill a greater purpose with Vanderbloemen by your side

Every organization deserves a personalized approach to leadership. Our Houston-based executive search firm specializes in serving churches, schools, nonprofits, and values-driven businesses, emphasizing the importance of building, leading, and sustaining high-performing teams.  

Our story

Vanderbloemen began in 2009 when founder William Vanderbloemen recognized that churches across the nation struggled to find and hire exceptional leaders. Recruiting souls for Christ is, after all, a different business from recruiting staff for your organization.

Drawing on over 15 years of experience as a senior pastor and tenure as an HR leader at a Fortune 200 company, William launched Vanderbloemen Search Group with the mission to bridge the gap between ministry and executive search. 

By demonstrating the value of tailored search services designed specifically for churches, Vanderbloemen gained momentum and recognition in the industry. Once established as the premier search and succession planning firm for churches, we branched out to serve schools, nonprofits, and values-driven businesses with the same care and individualized approach.
