Performance Team
Rick Snowden, President and Founder
Graduating with a BA in History from Rutgers College in 1974, Rick has been involved exclusively with the sales and marketing professions since then.
Starting as a territory sales rep, he held sales and management positions in territorial sales; commercial major and national accounts; governmental, academic and medical institutional markets; training; and marketing development. This was over a 20 year period in the highly competitive and demanding business equipment industry, selling copier, facsimile and word-processing systems with the Savin and Minolta organizations.
Establishing SMR Group Ltd in 1995, Rick’s background, including experiences with recruiters as both a hiring manager and a job candidate, uniquely prepared him for early and enduring success in the search and recruitment profession.
