The Work Horse
An avid long-distance runner, Zach knows all about perseverance. Enduring those extra miles requires putting in the work, taking necessary water breaks, and, most of all, the right mindset. Like Zach says, ‘success is never given, it’s earned daily.’ It is these same qualities that make Zach an extraordinary consultant. Not to mention, he is a downright likable guy.
Ask the questions you need to ask, admit without apology what you don’t understand, and do the work to learn what you need to learn as quickly as you can. Bob Iger
As principal at O’Neill Consulting, Zach has spent over a decade connecting visionary leaders in the operations, supply chain, finance, and sales sectors with investor-backed businesses and public companies across industrial, consumer, and private equity sectors.
Zach leads the entire search lifecycle - from strategy and client advisory to execution and mentoring rising talent within the firm. With a hands-on approach and expertise spanning operations, supply chain, finance, and sales, he brings a refreshing ability to deliver results that align with the evolving demands of today’s industries.
Before joining O’Neill Consulting, Zach was a senior staffing consultant at The Greysmith Companies. There, he honed his skills in client relationship management and business development while connecting talented professionals with organizations in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts. His early work ignited his passion for helping organizations scale through transformative leadership hires. Since then, he’s developed a proven track record of placing top executives in roles that drive growth, innovation, and cultural alignment.
His enthusiasm and energy extend outside of work, as Zach is an avid distance runner, often training for marathons or jumpstarting his mornings with scenic runs. He also can be found hiking, skiing, cycling, and golfing, balancing his active pursuits with time spent exploring music, culture, and food through travel.
