Executive Search for High-Impact Roles

Our executive search process focuses on identifying and securing professionals who aren’t actively applying for jobs but are open to the right opportunity. These passive candidates often represent the top tier of talent in their industries, people who have the expertise and leadership qualities to make an immediate and lasting impact. We recruit executive and senior-level professionals for roles such as:

Each search is tailored to your specific requirements, industry, company culture, and long-term vision.

Headhunting for Specialized and Competitive Talent

Massachusetts is home to a dense concentration of high-growth companies, research institutions, and global brands. As a result, the most qualified candidates are rarely on the open market. Through our headhunting services, we reach out directly to professionals with the skills and experience your business needs, people currently succeeding in similar roles at your competitors. We frequently fill roles such as:

Bioinformatics Scientists
Software Engineers
Data Scientists
Financial Analysts
Clinical Trial Managers
Regulatory Affairs Specialists
Mechanical and Electrical Engineers
Portfolio Managers
University Program Directors
Cybersecurity Analysts

We go beyond resumes, evaluating candidates for technical competence, cultural fit, and leadership potential.

Placement Fee and Guarantee

Our pricing is transparent and performance-based. We charge a placement fee of 18% of the candidate’s first-year base salary. This fee is only invoiced after a successful hire.

To reduce risk and reinforce our commitment to quality, every placement comes with a 3-month replacement guarantee. If the hire leaves or underperforms within the first 90 days, we’ll conduct a replacement search at no additional cost.
