Why we exist

Placement fees pay for a close. You need a match.

20–30%Typical agency fee, of first-year salary

The agency

Paid when you hire, so speed beats fit.

A contingency fee rewards the fastest yes, and the search behind your shortlist stays out of sight.

The stack

Software that tracks a search nobody is running.

An ATS, a sourcing tool, an AI add-on. They organize a pipeline. None of them studies your market or writes to a person.

The early hire

A full-time recruiter before the plan is set.

Months to ramp, a salary to carry, and one person standing between you and your most important hires.

The producer's chair

You own the call. We clear the way.

A match takes two. Here is what we ask of your team, agreed before outreach starts, and how we carry the rest.
