Seven days to a shortlist you can actually act on.
Here is exactly what happens after you brief us, week by week, so you can hold us to it.
No mystery, no radio silence.
Every search runs to the same clock. If a step slips, you hear about it from us before you have to ask.
- Day 0Step 1
Calibration call
45 minutes with the hiring manager, not a coordinator. We want the three things the person must be able to do on day one, the trade-offs you will accept, and who has already been rejected and why.
- Day 2Step 2
Market read
A written note on what your brief costs in the current market, how deep the pool is, and anything in the role that will make it hard to fill. If the band is wrong, this is where you find out.
- Day 2–7Step 3
Mapped outreach
We build a named list of people who fit and approach them individually. Nothing is posted to a job board unless you want it to be.
- Day 7Step 4
Shortlist of four
Four candidates, each with a written note covering fit, gaps, motivation, notice period and salary expectation. You should be able to decide who to interview in ten minutes.
- Week 2–4Step 5
Interview and offer
We keep the process moving, prep candidates properly, collect structured feedback, and handle the offer and any counter-offer directly.
- Day 30Step 6
Post-start check-in
We speak to both sides a month in. Placements that go wrong almost always signal it in the first four weeks.
The terms, before you ask for them.
Most of what goes wrong between a company and an agency comes from things nobody put in writing. So here they are.
A named consultant
One person owns your search end to end. You will not be handed to a junior after the pitch.
Exclusivity is optional
We do not demand it. We do ask you to tell us if you are running three other agencies, so we can price the effort honestly.
No CV spam
We send four names, not forty. If we cannot find four worth sending, we send fewer and tell you why.
90-day replacement
If a permanent placement leaves within 90 days for any reason other than redundancy, we replace them at no fee.
Your data stays yours
Candidate details are shared for your role only. We do not re-market your team to our other clients.
Honest no
If the brief is unfillable at that budget, we say so in week one rather than billing you for a search that will not land.
What we hire for.
Backend, frontend, mobile, data, platform and engineering leadership. If it is not on this list, ask — we will tell you honestly whether we can cover it.
Brief us on one role and see how it goes.
No retainer, no exclusivity, no long-form MSA to start. Tell us about the role and you will have a market read within 48 hours.
