Tony Gerbino joined Townsend Search Group in 2010 and has successfully recruited senior-level executives and emerging leaders for over 15 years. He has completed engagements in disciplines including private equity, investment banking, corporate development, corporate finance and accounting. Tony brings lasting partnerships and trust earned through integrity and keeping himself reliably available to the people and clients he serves.

“I enjoy making a personal connection with people and having an impact on their lives. Successful, lasting unions take an investment of time to understand both the requisite background and the intangibles of the client and candidates. Integrating the needs of both will bring together a cohesive union. When I visit a client and encounter many people there whom I’ve placed, there is gratification to see their success and how it’s positively impacting the company. You feel a part of it.”

Preceding Townsend Search Group, Tony worked for a national professional services firm that provided permanent staffing, consulting and outsourcing solutions to a myriad of organizations from start-ups to the Fortune 500. He was an Associate at Spencer Trask Ventures, a boutique private equity and venture capital firm that invests in healthcare, consumer, specialty chemical and ingredient companies and began his career in financial services at UBS in New York.

Tony holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Finance from Michigan State University. He enjoys time spent with his two children, travelling to new destinations, outdoor leisure and watching MSU sports.
