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.

Truett Allen at RWR has been my recruiting partner for many years. Truett’s professionalism and industry savvy affords me the ability and trust to have him work directly with our hiring managers. He understands the needs of a job very well and thoughtfully matches those needs to the qualifications of each candidate he submits for consideration. Some of our best employees have come from Truett. He will continue to be my first call to support my recruiting needs.
SVP Store Development, Retailer
- Client, Retail - Real Estate & Construction
I have crossed paths professionally with Shanna Finucane and Mark Dremely of RWR numerous times throughout my career. It is a relationship I truly value. Their diligence and professionalism is outstanding. Most recently Shanna reached out me while conducting a search. Shanna, and RWR, focus on finding the right “fit” professionally, making sure that capabilities, requirements and executive approach are all aligned to deliver the highest value for both the organization and the individual candidate. I look forward to working with Shanna in the future to grow and enhance my organization. I recommend Shanna and RWR as a resource to any executive recruiting effort in the retail channel.
Director of Human Resources, Specialty Geotechnical Construction Company
- Client, Healthcare
I have worked with Neshia Plair over the past few years as a recruiting partner. Neshia defines the term partner with her extreme sense of professionalism and organization; she is an extension of my team on site. There are few recruiters that I feel have the level of engagement that Neshia possesses. Neshia has learned our industry from the ground up and stays on top of what the market is doing to help support us in finding the most qualified candidates, not just from a cognitive skills perspective, but also from a behavioral fit. As far as recruiters go, I find her a top performer.
EVP Human Resources, Crude Oil Trading and Marketing Company
- Client, Energy Search
I have worked with Truett Allen and his capable team at Richard, Wayne and Roberts for many years – even working with RWR beginning in the late 1980’s when the firm was fairly new. Over the past 15 years or so my career has mainly been in senior HR leadership positions in independent commodity trading and energy services’ firms. During this entire time, Truett and his team have been my “go-to” resources for identifying strong candidates – primarily for middle and back office positions. They have a fantastic network that they have developed over the years and Truett has a strong understanding of these roles and the types of candidates who will be successful in both the job and a good match for our company culture. They also have an appreciation for the fast pace of our industry and can identify candidates quickly. I have recommended Truett and RWR to many of my counterparts (and some folks seeking employment) over the years and have always enjoyed a close working relationship with Truett and his team.
CFO, Environmental Services Company
- Accounting & Finance, Client
Richard Wayne and Roberts has been a great partner to work with since I moved to the Houston market three decades ago. We have built strong teams together with three different companies. Alexis Rogers and her team take the time to understand the company culture and targeted candidate profile attributes to ensure fit before we even begin to evaluate scope and experience requirements. The team is efficient, they get results and working with them is always a pleasure.
