How We Became the Top Senior Living Recruiters

Picture

Company History

Picture
President and Founder, Lauren Hurley, started her recruiting profession with a generalist firm where she specialized in the Investment Industry, a previously undeveloped market for that firm. Lauren has received numerous honors based on her achievements as a top performer and was awarded a national recruiting firm's coveted Outstanding Recruiter of the Year Award several times during her tenure.

​After being recruited as a Vice President for a national career counseling and outplacement firm she developed and built a new recruiting division where she successfully placed senior level executives on a national scale. Lauren also Co-hosted the company’s weekly radio show “The Workplace” on KPRZ 1210 AM, San Diego, CA.  Lauren later became an on-site Recruiting Consultant for The Anthony Robbins Company and placed sales and operations executives for their organization as well as trained staff in recruiting strategies and methods.

During Lauren’s personal experiences with her Mother’s Alzheimer’s disease and her Father’s need for Assisted Living, Lauren developed a passion for the care of all seniors.  Through this experience Lauren saw a need within the Senior Housing Industry to find the best candidates who are highly professional and passionate about the care of seniors. As a result, LM Hurley & Associates Executive Recruiting was formed by Lauren to create an executive search firm to offer a specialized executive search service to Senior Living clients and candidates.
