This disciplined approach has given Corbett Search a reputation as the "Headhunters of Record" for high-stakes, next generation retained search, and and has led to validation from top VC and PE firms, and market defining owners and operators.
100% of our searches come from inbound referrals and requests, and we only take on projects that align with our expertise and mastery of the market.
As one legendary investor put it: "Keep up the hard charging. You have made a strong name for yourself in the market. And I appreciate how you do it with real work, not just hype.”
While many great firms have come before us, here's why clients in today's high-stakes environment believe we're superior:
Niche Focus & Network - We ONLY recruit CEO’s and Revenue-Driven Operating Executives (CRO, CCO, VPS). This disciplined approach equates to an ever-expanding network, total command of our key markets, and "text message" level access to the impact players and clutch performers across their respective industries.
Process & Speed - Bump, Set, Spike. Our lean, mean, tech-enabled, + repeatable process is at the core of our specialized model. Within 5-7 days of a signed agreement, we deliver an organized market map, along with a shortlist of battle-tested, hire-ready executives. Executive searches are fully completed within 48 days on average, and you’re dealing with 1 of our 2 Founders, not a farm system of people learning on the job.
Outreach Strategy - The Secret Sauce. Regardless of our network, each search requires a deep dive, and you can’t get great candidates from a couple of emails anymore. Candidates will tell you our outreach is unique to what they've seen in decades of "being recruited", and our clients benefit from this reputation.
Hi-Touch - Our candidate submissions, weekly recaps, and unbiased market intel is unique to the industry. We don’t just generate reports and add extra work for our clients. We proactively piece together the info that matters to reduce clutter and lead to a faster hire.
Cost-Effective - Don't be confused. We're a deadline-driven search firm - headhunters on a mission. But we measure our success by the success of our clients, and we play the long game with those who value the importance of our partnership. Fees will be a notch below the larger retained shops, but you’ll get the same or better executives in less time. Really!
