He has 21 years of executive search experience with a broad spread of clients particularly in the Industrial, Technology, Consumer and Energy sectors. The new team in Chicago will build an expanded presence in the North Midwest for Stanton Chase. The renewed leadership for this office will solidify Stanton Chase within the region and is an important piece of our continuing strategy to expand within North America.

For us to add Bernie Layton and PeopleNext as our foothold in the Chicago and the greater Midwest market is a significant coup for us.
