Your Talent Partner
More Than Recruiters. Strategic Advisors.
Finding top performers isn’t easy. They aren’t on job boards — they’re busy making an impact elsewhere. And when a key role sits unfilled, your business feels the pressure: stalled projects, overextended teams, missed opportunities.
That’s why companies turn to Richard, Wayne & Roberts. We help you overcome hiring roadblocks, reach the passive candidates others can’t and secure leaders who will make a lasting difference in your organization.
Why Partner With Us?
The best talent isn’t looking for you. But we are.
About 70% of professionals are “passive candidates” — high-performing individuals who aren’t actively job hunting. Reaching and engaging these leaders takes industry insight, discretion and the right relationships.

Here’s What Employers Say
Head of North America Human Resource, Global Commodities Trading Company
- Client, Energy Search
I have worked with RWR over the past 12 years in three different capacities. They placed me in a shop when I was young in my career, then I used them as my primary resourcing firm as a finance manager to build my team. Now, as I am in charge of Human Resources, they are my primary resourcing firm for my North American hires. I stay with RWR because they are always accessible when you need them and they understand my organization’s culture and needs, saving me time in the candidate screening process, and allowing us to get top talent quickly. I have worked with the same core people for many years, showing me that RWR supports their employees and, in turn, those employees support their clients well.
Controller, Fortune 100 Firm, Houston, TX
- Accounting & Finance, Client
I look forward to having lunch with Kurt where I will have an opportunity to shake his hand firmly.
Partner, Law Firm
- Client, Legal
Denise Miller is a smart and energetic self-starter. She can be relied upon to take charge of a case and work to obtain the best possible solution for her client.
HR Business Partner, Global Commodity Trading Shop
- Client, Energy Search
The Energy Search team at Richard, Wayne and Roberts has been a great help for our staffing needs. We operate in a dynamic market and often have different specialized positions open. Since many of our openings are confidential, we trust RWR as recruiting partners to keep us apprised of market changes and available candidates. They are familiar with our business, culture and management and can assess if a candidate will be successful working for us. That saves HR and management a lot of time, which is highly appreciated in this fast-paced work environment. I am always impressed with their level of engagement in following up with candidates as well as their prompt follow up to my requests. I would be happy to recommend them and look forward to working with the Energy Search team in the future.
Land Manager, International E&P
- Candidate, Client, Oil & Gas
I would recommend contacting Stephanie Johnson for either your personal job search or helping to secure qualified candidates for open positions within your firm. She helped me secure my position and, during my job search, she maintained constant contact and answered all my questions. Once there, I requested her assistance in filling positions within my team. I found Stephanie to be extremely knowledgeable and the consummate professional. Her contact base in the oil and gas industry was exactly what we needed at the time.
VP of National Operations, Maintenance, Sr. Vice President of Development – Retail Developer
- Client
I have worked with Richard, Wayne & Roberts for over 25 years, both as a candidate and as a hiring manager. I have worked with Shanna Finucane (Manager, Real Estate team) for the last 15 years. The levels of professionalism that she and RWR represent in the searches they conduct provide the highest quality candidates available in the market. As a result of their consistently high results, I continue to rely on RWR and Shanna’s team to help me in (my) searches.
