Torch Group is pleased to announce that Mark Sandler has recently joined the team as Senior Vice President, Food and Beverage Practice Leader and a Member of our Leadership Team.
Mark is an innovative thinker who prior to joining Torch Group founded a multi-million-dollar allergen-free, plant-based snack food company. In his new role, Mark will leverage his 30+ years of experience leading organizations through all growth stages to strategically align talent with business goals. As an account manager, Mark will utilize his deep understanding of transformative leadership in sales, marketing, business development, start up, distribution, private label, and product development to drive relentlessly towards the goal of delivering the highest quality candidates that exceed each of his client's expectations.
“Mark's background and broad skill set places our clients in very capable hands,” says Michele Torch, Chief Talent Officer and head of Search Services at Torch Group. “His knowledge of every facet of the Food and Beverage industry, paired with his extensive network, uniquely positions him to advise our clients based on his experience with some of the very same challenges they are presently facing. We are looking forward to having Mark's leadership, expertise, and innovative spirit help our clients grow.”
“My entire career has been about finding solutions to challenges,” says Mark. “When my youngest son was born with life threatening food allergies, we founded Divvies, a vegan and nut free baked goods company so that he, and others with and without food allergies, could enjoy delicious treats together,” he shares. “I am excited to be a part of Torch Group and take a consultative approach to our partnerships with clients. Using my experience, deep network and knowledge of the Food and Beverage industry, I believe that I will be able to present the best possible candidates for each client and, should the need arise, also offer guidance.”
