History

In 1990, Hemen Parekh after 30 years of a successful corporate career turned entrepreneur and along with his son Nirmit set up 3P Consultants. We are one of the early firms in India to focus on retained executive search. Others would soon follow, using many of the basic tenets and principles that Hemen & Nirmit put in place; maintaining a strict code of ethics and standards, creating uniform processes and working with highly experienced business partners. The vision set by the founders is to be a leading consulting organization driven by knowledge, integrity and performance committed to clients success.

Shaping the Future – A Global Firm

In 1996 with the advent of the country being economically liberalized, the firm thought it necessary to expand its horizon and decided to explore partnership with other likeminded firms. In the autumn of 1996 we entered into an agreement with DE. Foster Partners (A US alliance of KPMG) which provided us a global footprint. Over the coming years 3P partnered with leading global companies assisting them in identifying superior talent.

Long before Hemen considered his own retirement from day-to-day business, he was driven by the desire to transform the firm he had founded with his son into an institution marked by dynamic growth and continuous development. In 2002, Hemen stepped down from his executive responsibilities to choose his son Nirmit to succeed him as CEO.

In 2003, 3P Consultants joined Penrhyn International, a network of highly qualified boutique search firms as their partners for India. 3P has significantly contributed towards the growth of Penrhyn International and in 2007 Nirmit was invited to lead this international group as their Chairman for two consecutive years.
