Retained search for PE-backed healthcare technology & services.
One partner. The hard seats. Filled again and again. Leadership searches for portfolio companies, and a program model for the repeat hires that never stop reopening.
Two ways to work with us.
Both built for the same buyer: a CEO, COO, or people leader at a sponsor-backed healthcare technology or services company who has a seat open too long, or a seat that has to be filled six times this year.
One leadership seat. One partner. A shortlist in weeks.
VP, Director, and Manager roles in client services, implementation, professional services, sales, product, engineering, and finance.
- Scoped with the hiring leader before a single call is made
- Sourced from people who aren't looking
- Carried through offer, resignation, and start
The same hard seat, filled again and again.
A slate of repeat hard-to-fill seats (implementation consultants, client success, sales) on a monthly retainer or a flat per-seat fee. For companies that need six of the same person this year, not one.
- One profile, calibrated once, run continuously
- Flat economics that beat agency fees at volume
- The model behind five years and dozens of implementation-consultant placements for one client
Scope. Source. Secure.
The method is the same for one seat or twenty. Every call is made by the founder. No junior team, no hand-off.
Scope
A working session with the hiring leader: what the seat has to produce in year one, who has done it before, and where they are today. The brief is written before the search starts.
Source
Direct, nationwide, by phone. People who aren't looking, found through the market map, not the job board. Weekly status so you always know where the search stands.
Secure
References, compensation, counteroffer, and the resignation conversation, handled. The search ends when the person starts, not when they accept.
Search partner through PE-backed growth and a $1.4B exit.
Recruiting inside four sponsor-backed healthcare technology companies, from the first hire after the deal to the bench that carried the exit.
“One client, five years, dozens of implementation consultants placed nationwide. The same high-bar search, run again and again, by phone, without a job-board candidate in the mix. That is the shape of work this firm is built for.”

A seat open too long, or one you'll fill six times this year?
Fifteen minutes is enough to know whether it's a fit. No deck, no pitch.
