Retained Search
Retained
A dedicated, exclusive engagement for the hires where getting it right matters more than getting it fast.
One partner, full
ownership, the right
hire.
Built for your most important hires
Retained search is best suited to:
-
Senior hires. VPs of Sales, Sales Directors and founding GTM Leads who will shape your commercial strategy.
-
Multiple hires. Building out a sales or customer success team, often after a funding round.
-
Confidential hires. Replacing an incumbent, entering a new market, or hiring before a plan is public.
What's included.
Market mapping
We learn the role, your product, your buyers and your sales motion, so we understand what good looks like in your deal cycle.
Competitor benchmarking
You get full access to our active bench straight away. No ramp-up period while we start from scratch.
Passive-candidate outreach
We introduce candidates we already know and have vetted, not database matches.
A single point of accountability
We manage the process with candidates, gather feedback and help you close.
Contingent
Hiring in line with your raise.
Our relationships with venture partners give us a working knowledge of what investors expect from a GTM build-out at each stage, from seed through Series B. We help you hire the leader and team your next stage actually needs, not the one that looked right two rounds ago.
