Two ways to hire.
One discipline.
A mid-senior search for the operator who has to deliver in 90 days, or a confidential exec search where the wrong hire costs you a year. The protocol is the same. The depth scales to the role.
The search that finds who your competitors can't.
We don't post jobs and hope. We start with a kickoff that defines the hire. Then we map the market, score candidates against a written success profile, and deliver three to five candidates in one batch. You see who fits the role and who fits the company, with the data behind the recommendation.
- Custom success profile built before sourcing begins
- Structured candidate scoring on fit, culture & tenure
- Identity verification & credential validation on every candidate
- Structured behavioral assessments, not surface-level interviews
- 30/60/90-day post-hire check-ins to protect your investment
Leadership placements without the leak.
At the C-suite or VP level, the real candidate pool is maybe fifty people nationally, and most of them aren't looking. Our executive search runs slower, deeper, and entirely off the public record. Confidential market mapping. Direct outreach to the leaders who aren't on the market. A single principal owns the relationship from kickoff through transition.
- C-suite, VP & Director-level placements
- Competitive market intelligence & compensation analysis
- Fully discreet & confidential search process
- Deep behavioral & leadership assessments
- 180-day placement guarantee included with post-hire support
How you work with us.
Every engagement runs the same protocol and produces candidates we can defend in writing. What changes is how exclusively we work for you, how much visibility you get into the search, and how the fee is structured.
Engaged Search
The middle path between retained and contingent. A modest engagement fee gets the search started, with the balance due on placement. You get an exclusive partner without writing a full retainer check before you see candidates.
- Exclusive engagement, your search not in a queue
- Engagement fee upfront, balance due on placement
- Full client portal access with real-time visibility
- Interview debriefs & candidate scorecards
- Same protocol as retained, lighter commitment
Retained Search
The deepest, most confidential model we run. Reserved for executive placements where the right hire defines the next five years. Milestone-based fee structure paid through the search.
- Confidential market mapping, off the public record
- Milestone-based fee paid through the search
- Full client portal access for you and your board
- Direct outreach to passive leadership talent
- One principal accountable, start to finish
Contingent Search
Pay only when we place the hire. No upfront commitment. The right fit if you want to test the relationship before committing, or if the role is defined enough that a faster, less exclusive model makes sense.
- Pay only on successful placement
- Curated shortlist with full candidate profiles
- Same vetting protocol on every candidate
- Email-based progress updates
- Flexible, no-risk engagement
