Index Search Group, an executive and professional search firm for manufacturing and supply chain, has launched under CEO Matt Dionne, a former executive with 25 years of global industrial leadership. After nearly a decade leading the manufacturing and supply chain practice at TYGES Elite, Dionne founded Index Search, bringing his team to deliver sharper focus, smarter search, and greater client value.

The launch comes at a pivotal time. Manufacturers and supply chain organizations face mounting pressure as executives retire, skilled professionals remain scarce, and domestic investment accelerates demand for leaders. According to Deloitte and The Manufacturing Institute, 2.1 million U.S. manufacturing jobs could go unfilled by 2030, underscoring the need for smarter recruiting models.

“Having spent over two decades leading industrial operations, I know how critical the right hire is to a company’s success,” said Dionne, Founder & CEO of Index Search. “Index Search was built to provide a long-term solution for organizations facing the persistent talent gap in manufacturing and supply chain. Our goal is not just to fill roles quickly, but to deliver leaders who create measurable and lasting impact.”

The firm uses an always-on sourcing model that reaches professionals missed by traditional recruiting. By combining technology, insights, and deep industry networks, the firm helps clients find leaders faster. Specializing in sectors like test and measurement, industrial technology, semiconductors, and distribution, Index offers expertise generalist firms cannot match.

“Matt and his team have had significant impact on our businesses,” said Martin Carter, Partner at High Traverse Partners. “Their ability to pair real-world operational and leadership experience with each search has been invaluable; shaping teams that deliver results from day one. I’m excited to see them take the next step with Index Search and confident they’ll continue to provide the talent, insights, and outcomes we’ve come to rely on.”
