As principal of ScoutRock, Caroline provides consulting and networking services to corporate executive recruiting and executive-talent management leaders.  She also helps human resources professionals better understand and leverage the executive recruiting profession.

Prior to founding ScoutRock, Caroline was the director, executive recruiting at Lockheed Martin, a Fortune 50 company.  Charged with improving the company’s executive hiring and selection process, she established a centralized corporate-wide executive recruiting program designing the concept of operations as well as the implementation and execution strategies.  Focusing on the top 2% of executive positions within the company, following the retained model through direct executive search, the function improved the quality of hire by a 215% increase in high-potential nominations, a 175% increase in diversity and a 570% decrease in executive attrition.

While maintaining her leadership of executive recruiting, Caroline also successfully turned-around Lockheed Martin’s floundering strategic sourcing program effectively creating talent pipelines of non-executive professionals possessing the company’s critical skills.  Parallel to this initiative, she also designed and implemented a non-executive military recruiting program focused on recruiting separating military personnel. Within one year of the military recruiting program’s start-up, the company’s position moved from no-mention to fourth in GI Jobs magazine’s national ranking of military-friendly companies.

Caroline’s three programs, executive recruiting, strategic sourcing and military recruiting were highlighted among the most significant accomplishments within the history of Lockheed Martin’s human resources shared services organization. For more on Caroline McClure click here.
