History

History

Harold Perry founded Mandrake in Toronto in 1970, establishing a prominent executive search firm. By the mid-1980s, the firm had completed its 1,000th search, marking a significant milestone in its early years. Over the past decade, Mandrake has continued to thrive, completing its 15,000th search. In 2020, to commemorate its 50th anniversary, the firm opened Mandrake Place, a new office in the upscale Yorkville district of downtown Toronto, further solidifying its presence in the executive search market.
