About Kent Gray
I have been in the staffing and recruiting industry for over 25 years. Initially, with a large national firm, where I progressed from an entry-level recruiter to a Regional Vice President. Next, I co-founded staffing and recruitment firms, CVPartners (CVP) and R&D Partners where I served as CEO. CVP and R&D grew rapidly and received many awards including Best Place to Work, Fastest Growing Companies, Inc. 500, etc. CVP was sold in August, 2014, but R&D remains an independent national life sciences staffing firm.As we grew the businesses, finding a workable software solution was a recurring source of frustration. After being on four systems in eleven years, it was time to build our own. In 2012, I co-founded Talent Rover, a fully integrated cloud-based software solution built on the industry’s leading cloud development platform, Salesforce\'s force.com. I was the lead investor and served as CEO until Talent Rover was acquired, in February, 2018, after several years of rapid international growth.
