Partner-led search for marketing and growth leaders
Outcome + value creation-focused search: 95% offer acceptance & 98% search completion.
Every transformation, every growth target, every investment thesis comes down to whether the right marketing and growth leader is in the right role. I start with the destination: what this role must create in the first 12 to 24 months, grounded in the business problem and where the organization is headed. That clarity speeds the process.
That clarity is also what attracts the right leader. The opportunity to build something that matters.

I've been on every side of this — the hiring manager with a vague brief, the candidate reading a generic spec, the recruiter trying to make both sides work. I built this practice around what it takes to get them right.
What I'm looking for underneath the process: the mandate beneath the brief, the trajectory beneath the resume. Did they cause the growth, or ride the wave? Do they learn faster than the market moves? That's the judgment the process is built to surface.
Corporate — The hire is solving a business problem while the organization shifts. I get the CEO, board, and team aligned on what success looks like and what authority the role will actually have.
Agencies — Leaders who can operate without infrastructure and build it while delivering. I search across agency and corporate ecosystems. The strongest talent often moves between them.
Private Equity Portfolio Companies — The right leader, landing fast and building fast, is a direct input to the return. The process functions like due diligence on the hire itself. Milestone-based fees. 12-month integration.
An iterative process.
The spec gets sharper as we learn — not looser.
Partner-led, no handoffs.

Placement is not the finish line. What happens after the start date is.
