About Us

We live, work and breathe the Portland culture, with deep roots and even deeper connections that tie us to this city. Ringed by beaches and mountains, our community offers an amazing work-life balance that we welcome rain or shine! And it's certainly no secret that we're one of the most liveable cities in the country. Skilled, creative people continue to flock to the Rose City in droves and those with taproots are in no hurry to leave. That's good news for us as local connectors!

Ever since Diane Boly and Pat Welch opened the doors of the founding company, Boly:Welch Recruiting in ’86, we’ve been making connections with the area’s best employers and top talent. We’ve developed deep relationships that continue to grow with years of successful business solutions. Boly:Welch Consulting is a natural and organic outgrowth of those relationships, largely in response to client requests for deeper engagement in their organizations. Client trust developed through finding just the right fit across our recruiting businesses has translated into robust opportunities for new consultative challenges.

As you get to know the team, you'll learn that our commitment to community, connections and sustainability is more than just words. Active volunteerism and philanthropy run deep within the Boly:Welch culture - in fact, it's in our DNA. We're also above average on the pet friendly side, so you may hear a bark or a yip when you call or stop by to meet with us. It's about creating a work envrionment that brings out the best in all of us - and a philosophy that has earned recognition as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work for in Oregon almost every year since 2003.

Deep roots. Sustainable connections. Community impact. Our path to success.
