How we work

Every engagement starts with a conversation. We agree on the role or the question, the scope and what you'll get back, then put it in a short written agreement. The numbers below are starting points, not quotes.

Retained search

For the one hire that has to be right.

Starting at 25% of first-year total compensation, with a $25K minimum. Billed in thirds: at signing, at the first shortlist and at acceptance.

Includes one replacement search if the hire leaves within 12 months.

Hiring sprints

For several openings of the same kind at once.

Like product managers, sales teams across the country, an engineering build-out, or AI ops and agent ops roles. For a set stretch, my whole team works only on your hiring.

Seat Sprint: under $40K. Sprint: about $75K to $80K. Full Month: about $125K. All scoped per engagement.

Research briefs

Bring us a clear business question.

You get a source-backed brief that keeps facts apart from our read and says what's still unknown.

Scoped and quoted per question.

Starting points only. Final terms are in your written agreement.

What's always true

  • Our AI agent team prepares the research. I lead every conversation.
  • You'll hear from me in writing as the search moves.
  • No administrative, research or technology charges.
  • Candidates are never charged to be considered, and nothing is submitted without their permission.
  • People make every hiring decision.
