Our process
01.
Interrogate the brief
We listen closely, challenge assumptions and provide frank advice on scope, salary and positioning. This is a genuine partnership to get the hire right.
02.
Map the market
We identify where exceptional people are – whether actively seeking opportunities or quietly excelling in their current roles.
03.
Engage with influence
We present opportunities discreetly, in ways that align with people's ambitions and values. We're not just introducing candidates – we're inspiring them to consider a move.
04.
Curate a shortlist
Instead of a stack of resumes, you receive a select group of outstanding professionals – each technically excellent, with the necessary soft skills and culturally aligned.
05.
Interview with insight
We prepare both sides with honest counsel, surfacing strengths, reservations and the unspoken factors that influence decision-making. We help keep the process on track and protect reputations throughout.
06.
Set up for success
Once your new hire is secured, we manage the delicate transition from resignation, through the first 90 days, reducing risk and setting the foundation for long-term success.
The right hire changes more than a team - it changes what's possible. When you understand both the people and the purpose, you find the perfect fit."
