Overview

What it is

Executive Search is a high-touch, founder-led search for senior marketing and leadership roles. It's designed for moments when the hire matters too much for volume recruiting or job boards.

Every search is intentional, targeted, and deeply aligned to the business.

The experience

How customers use it

Customers engage Executive Search when a role is critical to the company's direction—Director, VP, C-suite, or a highly unique individual contributor.

We partner closely with the hiring team to define success, then run a focused, discreet search. You spend your time evaluating the right people, not managing the process.

Why it works

The process starts with an exhaustive intake.

We work with founders and hiring leaders to understand the business, the role, the team dynamics, and the real challenges behind the hire.

How we execute

  • Build a custom company GPT, trained on your culture, values, role requirements, and success patterns
  • Use it to filter and score candidates based on what makes someone a true fit
  • Define 3–4 candidate personas—the most likely backgrounds to succeed in the role
  • Within 48 hours, we share 5 sample candidate profiles to confirm alignment before launch

How we attract the right candidates

  • Custom outreach campaigns built for each candidate persona
  • Messaging that highlights real challenges, tradeoffs, and upside—not generic job hype
  • Intentional filtering: only candidates genuinely excited by the role engage
  • Multi-channel passive engagement across LinkedIn, email, voice notes, and video
  • ~50% higher response rates from high-caliber, passive candidates

You spend time choosing between great options — not convincing the wrong people.

How we reduce hiring risk

  • Custom company GPT guides outreach, screens for true alignment, and scores consistently
  • Early calibration: 5 sample profiles shared within 48 hours to confirm fit
  • Founder-led oversight throughout the process to maintain quality, urgency, and signal
  • Industry-leading 1-year replacement guarantee (excluding layoffs)—if it doesn't work, we rerun the search at no cost

Our commitment doesn't end at the offer. It ends when the hire succeeds.

Outcome

A short, high-confidence slate of leadership candidates who fit the role, the culture, and the moment—leading to faster decisions and hires that actually stick.
