Libertad West

Born in Mexico and a native Spanish speaker, she currently exploits her knowledge and experience of Central America, supporting the Cripps Sears expansion in the Americas.

Libertad is a Modern Languages (French and Italian) graduate. She says that the international expansion that she saw taking place at Cripps Sears was an important factor that attracted her to the company, offering her the opportunity to work with her languages.

Libertad’s early career in executive search was in the life sciences and pharmaceuticals areas. Then, before joining Cripps Sears & Partners, she made the transition to executive search in the oil and gas industry.

Cripps Sears offers a truly global service. We have placed candidates in these locations.

Libertad says that she was drawn to recruitment at the executive level because of “the human interest and the challenge of matching a diverse range of candidates to dynamic international businesses”.

As a personal goal, Libertad would like to do more international travel, particularly to visit the region of Patagonia and see the unique flora and fauna. She is very interested in the music, history and literature of the pampas regions. She also involved in charity work, including Cripps Sears’ own ABC charity, and says: “That was one of the reasons I joined the company – it seemed very genuine to me.”
