Company Description
DuVall & Associates Executive Search is a boutique executive search firm based in San Clemente, California, serving organizations that require discreet, high-touch support in appointing senior leaders. Operating from 4203 Costa Salada, San Clemente, CA 92673, the firm is led by principals Karen DuVall and Rick Westcott, who directly manage each engagement from brief to placement. The firm specializes in retained executive search and interim leadership solutions, partnering with boards, founders, and Csuite leaders to identify and secure Clevel, EVP/SVP, VP, and director talent across core corporate functions. DuVall & Associates employs a senior-only delivery model that emphasizes thoughtful discovery, rigorous market mapping, calibrated outreach, and evidence-based assessment, ensuring clients receive a tightly aligned shortlist and a professional candidate experience that protects employer brand. Projects typically begin with a structured intake to define the success profile, competencies, culture, and stakeholder expectations, followed by targeted research that maps relevant companies and candidate pools regionally and nationally. Candidates are evaluated through behavior-based interviews, comparative insights, and reference-led validation, with support through offer negotiation and acceptance. For organizations facing transitional needs or requiring immediate impact, the firm can facilitate interim executive solutions to bridge gaps and maintain momentum. Post-placement, DuVall & Associates remains engaged through onboarding checkpoints to help new leaders ramp effectively and deliver early results. The firms website is currently being refurbished, but clients and candidates can connect directly with the principals by phone or email to discuss confidential searches or potential opportunities. With a lean structure and direct access to decision-makers, DuVall & Associates offers the accountability, speed, and customization of a boutique provider while maintaining the rigor and discretion expected of a top-tier executive search partner.
