  • In cases where you don’t need a senior leader but are looking to build out an early team, our Team Build model is often the right fit.

    This approach includes a modest monthly retainer, which helps reduce the overall placement fee. It works especially well for companies hiring for three or more roles at once.

    We support hiring across individual contributor (IC) roles and can allocate multiple recruiters to your account, increasing speed and efficiency while lowering overall costs.

    This model evolved organically—after placing leadership hires, many clients asked us to help build out their teams. For early-stage companies without internal recruiting resources, we effectively operate as an extension of your team, providing dedicated, hands-on support throughout the hiring process.

  • We work with early stage and growth companies going from Seed to Series.

  • We are easy to work with, just reach out via the form on our website and we will get back to you right away.
