Some Roles Don't Make
the Headlines.
They Just Make the Business Work.
Direct-hire recruiting for HR, operations, logistics, sales support, and business-critical roles. No upfront fee. You pay only when you hire.

30-second intro
Most companies lose ground on roles nobody talks about.
The HR Manager seat that has been open three months
Every week it stays empty, your managers spend time they do not have screening resumes and handling issues that should be handled by someone in that role.
The Operations lead nobody has had time to find
Processes slip. Costs creep. Your best people cover the gap until they can't anymore. Then you have two problems instead of one.
The Recruiter role that keeps getting deprioritized
Without someone in that seat, every other open role takes longer to fill. The backlog grows and the business pays for it every quarter.
No upfront cost. Fee is due only after a successful hire.
Qualified candidates delivered within 30 days of intake.
If the hire doesn't work out within 60 days, we replace at no additional fee.
The Process
Four steps. One clear commitment.
Role Intake
We get the role exactly right before sourcing anyone. Compensation, must-haves, what has made it hard so far. This is where most searches fail. We don't skip it.
Targeted Sourcing
Direct outreach to qualified candidates already in this kind of role. Not job board applicants. People who are not actively looking but would move for the right opportunity.
Screened Shortlist
Every candidate you meet has cleared the full filter. Role fit, compensation expectations, availability, motivation. You review finalists only.
Hire and Close
We stay in through offer, acceptance, and start. The fee is due only after the candidate starts. The 60-day guarantee is written into every agreement.
Roles We Fill
The seats that keep the business moving.
We focus on direct-hire roles with base salaries between $55,000 and $125,000. Common enough to source quickly. Important enough that companies feel it when they are empty.

Submit a RoleIndustries
Where we work best.
We focus on companies with 50 to 500 employees. Founder-led, PE-backed, and growth-stage businesses with real hiring needs and lean internal recruiting teams.
This works well when
- The role has been open longer than expected
- Internal recruiting capacity is limited or overloaded
- The salary range is defined and realistic
- The hiring manager is accessible and can move quickly
- The company is willing to sign a contingency agreement before candidates are submitted
- The role is direct-hire, not temp or contract
Not the right fit for
- Commission-only or draw-against-commission sales roles
- Temporary or contract staffing
- Mass or volume hiring
- Roles with no defined salary range
- Positions already distributed to 10 or more agencies
- Roles below $55,000 base salary

"The roles that matter most to a company's day-to-day aren't always the ones with the biggest titles. They're the ones where an empty seat costs you something every week."
