Our Team
Andrew Taylor
Principal
Hi, my name is Andrew Taylor, Principal and Founder of Focus Search LLC.
You can usually find me outside enjoying nature with my wife and kids or cooking up a storm in the kitchen. “Cooking” means me chopping vegetables and being the official taste tester. When I have a bit of free time, I love to play the piano or read a good book.
My passion is people and business. I’m at the intersection of the economy and the people that move it forward every day. It’s inspiring to be a part of many storied organizations that are so integral to our communities – whether a 5th generation lumber products manufacturer, a start-up software provider, or a local non-profit.
I love bringing together clients and candidates. Let’s get connected!

I was born and raised in Oregon and currently live in the beautiful Santiam Canyon. Helping people connect with new opportunities, answering their questions and helping facilitate the entire process is what really drives me. My hope is that I can provide personalized attention to each client and candidate and that they always feel like we took care of them.
I bring over 30 years of experience to Focus Search and helping organize your needs. I have a wealth of knowledge throughout my career spanning many industries including Architecture, Aviation, Health Care and Construction. I enjoy the hustle and the challenge of meeting both our clients’ requirements and our candidate’s needs. I enjoy meeting new people and learning more about all the industries that Focus Search has introduced to me.

Hi, my name is Wade Bird, Technology Recruiting Manager at Focus Search.
I’ve been in the Pacific Northwest my entire life. My favorite things to do are taking my family out to sporting events or camping. Traveling is the best education and my family and I strive to travel as much as we possibly can. I can’t wait to see what the future holds!
