Chenmark is a team of small businesses committed to each other and to the constant pursuit of better. We work with retiring owners and entrepreneurs to provide liquidity, preserve legacies, and position companies for long-term success. Chenmark companies share a commitment to: Chasing Better - We believe unequivocally in our potential. We maintain the discipline to do the little things necessary to achieve it. We cultivate the grit required to stay the course when things don’t go our way, and we maintain a sense of urgency. We choose to chase better because we want to run, not walk, toward greatness. Keeping Score - We believe in the power of competition and acknowledge that the scoreboard doesn’t lie. We believe data is more valuable than anecdote or opinion, but we also recognize that results are snapshots and not final judgements. Playing the Long Game - We believe consistency of performance over time is what counts. We think in decades, not years. We believe that in the long run, relationships matter, and we know that we can’t effectively take care of our companies if we don’t first take care of ourselves and our families. Putting the Team First - We believe the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. We are prepared to do whatever is needed to help the team win. When we lose, we accept responsibility. When we win, we share credit. By working for Chenmark, we commit to holding ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, especially when no one is watching.

We’ve all heard the phrase “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know” dozens of times. But when it comes to finding a temporary or temp to hire gig, an IT contract assignment, or your next career opportunity in Northern New England or Maine- it really couldn’t be truer. Whether you are just starting your career, new to the area, trying to re-enter the job market after taking some time away, or simply looking for that next career opportunity, we are known as the recruiting and staffing firm to get you to work. Established in Portland, Maine in 1994, our insights and contacts with employers are some of the reasons job seekers trust us to help them navigate the job market. The ProSearch team of Employee Owners is proud of our reputation for how we treat our temporary and contract employees, and the job seekers who have placed their trust in us to locate the best next career opportunity for them. At ProSearch, our job is to connect great people with great opportunities, and vice versa. From multinational employers to the quirkiest start-ups, we have our hands in all kinds of projects – even a few you won’t have heard of until connecting with us! And thanks to our deep connections in the employer community, we also have access to opportunities that aren’t publicly posted to any job board.
