Craig focuses his attention on the day-to-day management of his two companies, HireNetworks and Campbell & James Executive Search. The sister companies complement each other by offering executive and strategic hiring services including on-site and on demand recruiting to emerging and high-growth companies. Craig has built a team of seasoned recruiters and specialists to provide career management for individuals in the skill areas of IT, Life Sciences, Sales, Marketing and Finance. Craig has modeled HireNetworks after the emerging growth companies that make up its client list.

Prior to this, he spent six years serving IBM in several roles including analyst, software sales consultant and manager of the company’s mobile and wireless group. Craig played college and professional tennis. He has an Accounting degree from Elon University.
As regional investor, Craig stays engaged in the entrepreneurial experience with the value of his network. He is a member of the Atlantis Group angel fund, Southern Capitol Ventures, and is forming a new venture fund, Triangle Angel Partners (TAP). Craig is also an active member on the board of directors for the non-profit organization Band Together and the Triangle Technology Executives Council (TTEC). Craig is a regular speaker on the topics of careers, recruiting and entrepreneurship. He resides in Raleigh with his wife and their four boys.
