“Measure twice, cut once.” Every successful search begins with a clear understanding of the role, the culture, and the team. We’ll dig deep to help set you up for success, assisting with the job description and organizational design. More than a typical intake conversation, our initial time together will generate the insights we need to assemble your unique search.

Next, we launch a strategic search process tailored to your current need, utilizing a powerful combination of relationships, technology, and industry knowledge to identify the best candidates for your organization. But we don’t stop at connecting with candidates—open, transparent communication is the hallmark of our client partnerships. Our commitment to you is simple: we’ll never take on a search we don’t intend to work, and you’ll always know exactly where we are in the process. Once we’ve introduced the candidates to your team, we can help structure the conversations for clarity and guide you through salary negotiations when you’re ready to extend an offer.

The most successful companies and the most impactful organizations share one thing in common: amazing people. We were founded to help connect you with those amazing people—and to free you from the typical stress and anxiety of hiring. Before, during, and after the search, we’ll empower you to do what you best while we support the success of your organization. If desired, we’ll equip you with onboarding best practices as well as 30-, 60- and 90-day check-ins to help ensure a smooth transition.
