About
A career spent finding the right person for the right room.
Mark Moyer founded Compass Points Advisors after more than three decades in executive search. His practice is built on a simple premise: great hires are the result of careful listening, deep research, and relationships earned over years — not weeks.
Approach
Mark partners with a small, intentional roster of clients each year. Every search begins with extended time on the ground — understanding the role, the team it joins, and the outcome the hire is meant to produce. Only then does outreach begin.
The result is a shortlist that reflects genuine fit — not a stack of résumés, but a considered set of leaders who could each do the work and want to do it where it's offered.
Background
- 30+ years recruiting senior leaders across financial services, risk, and operating roles.
- Former senior recruiter at The Peak Organization, placing risk and capital-markets executives at global institutions.
- Trusted by hiring institutions and candidates alike for discretion, integrity, and follow-through.
In their words
Trusted by the leaders he places.
"Mark was able to locate an ideal role for me as a senior risk manager at a global institution in New York. That position certainly contributed toward a transition and elevation to my current role as head of capital markets credit risk management. Mark is extremely professional and operates with integrity but also with a great amount of energy and determination. He knows and studies his subject matter well and thoroughly researches issues and assignments. I would highly recommend him to both hiring institutions and those seeking employment."

"Through his recruiting efforts on my behalf, Mark was able to locate some difficult-to-find candidates within risk management roles. While I have hired a number of great employees over the years, I credit Mark for finding me probably my best hire ever."
