Pete Proctor

Pete Proctor is the Senior Recruiting Partner behind InfluenceOfYour7 and the founder of Sublime Personnel, a Houston-based executive recruiting firm. Over the past 20+ years, he has built a practice around eight specialized industry verticals — placing experienced professionals in director, VP, and C-suite roles across HOA property management, oil & gas, medical careers, commercial construction, accounting & finance, commercial lines insurance, personal lines insurance, and restaurant & hospitality.

He built InfluenceOfYour7 after years of watching qualified professionals get filtered out by ATS systems before a human ever saw their resume — or walk into interviews without understanding how a recruiter was reading their background. The platform is his answer to that gap: honest, vertical-specific career intelligence that gives professionals the same insider perspective that hiring managers and recruiters use every day.

Every ATS Resume Review, IO7 Career Report, and Recruiter Consultation is conducted personally by Pete. There is no junior staff, no AI-generated output, no outsourcing. When you work with InfluenceOfYour7, you are working directly with an active recruiter who places candidates in your vertical every day.

Pete's primary market is Houston, Texas and the Greater Houston metropolitan area — one of the most active markets in the United States for HOA management, energy, commercial construction, and healthcare careers. His services are available nationwide for ATS Reviews, IO7 Reports, and Recruiter Consultations. Executive Placement is focused primarily on Texas and the Gulf Coast region.
