Polygonal Sphere.png

Retained Search

For VP to C-level and niche leadership roles where the cost of a miss is material. Dedicated research, senior partner time, a stakeholder alignment workshop, bespoke assessment, and discreet market approach. We stay engaged through signed offer, successful start, and an agreed 90-day milestone. Milestone billing: activation, shortlist, offer.

Polygonal Sphere.png

Campaign Search

For hiring multiple similar roles in a short window where delays have real revenue impact. Time-boxed sprints, a structured interview process, clear milestones and week-by-week progress. We stay with you until the roles in scope are filled. Blended fee: activation plus success component.

Contingency Search

For mid-senior individual contributor roles where timing matters but the role is not business-critical. Non-exclusive, screened candidates as they surface, interview coordination and offer support. Success-only fee, invoiced on start.
