Our headhunting strategy emphasizes discretion, direct outreach, and market intelligence to attract the right individuals for your business needs.

Transparent Placement Fee and Guarantee

Our fee structure is simple and performance-based. We charge an 18% placement fee based on the selected candidate’s first-year salary. This fee is only invoiced after the candidate is officially hired, ensuring zero upfront risk for your business.

To reinforce our commitment to quality, we offer a 3-month replacement guarantee. If the hire leaves or does not meet expectations within 90 days, we’ll run a replacement search at no additional cost. Our aim is to make every hire a long-term success.
