The people you're looking for aren't always where you look.
An outside recruiting desk: we recruit for companies in the markets their own search doesn't reach. We show you that market before asking you for anything.

What your own search misses
The market you hire from is a choice
No company sees the whole market.
Every company hires from the part of the market it knows how to reach: its city, its job boards, the agency someone used before, the salary band set two years ago. That boundary was never decided. It accumulated.
For most roles it does not matter. For a hard one it decides the outcome, because the person who could do the job is often just outside it. Moving that boundary is the whole of what we do.

The market map
One role, counted and dated · free · yours either way
What exists outside your search?
For one role, we count the people who could do it in the markets outside the one you normally recruit from: the ones that can still work your hours. You get that count, and everything we could not measure, before you commit to anything. It is free, and it sometimes says you don't need us.

What we actually do
Research · find · interview · introduce
We recruit outside the market you already search.
A recruiter paid per role in one city cannot afford to build a presence in another. We are set up the other way round: standing outside our clients' markets is a condition of how we operate, not extra effort we promise.
01
Research
We find out where the people who could do your role actually are, and count them. You see that map before you commit to anything, and it states what we could not measure.
02
Find and approach
We contact those people ourselves. Not a bought list and not applicants: people located for this role, in markets a local agency cannot afford to work.
03
Interview and introduce
We interview them against your standard, in the language the role needs, and introduce the ones who clear it, with the list of who we ruled out and why.
The proposal
Six pages. What we will do, what we will not do, and what we still do not know about your market.

The candidate summary
Written by whoever did the interview, not a forwarded CV. What we know, what we don't, and who we ruled out.

Of everything we have recorded
The concentration, drawn
Filled: one client. Outlined: the other seven companies, five of which appear exactly once.
What this proves
One company, over three years, repeatedly chose to hire people it could not reach on its own, across nine unrelated functions, through the same desk. Breadth of function and persistence over time are the two things hardest to manufacture.
What it doesn't
That it repeats. The table records wins only, so nothing here supports a conversion, fill or win rate, and we will not quote one. We hold no verified figure for placement value. One record is a fall-off.
Someone who already looked where you haven't.
The people we find did not apply to anything. They were doing the job well somewhere else, while a company searched the place it always searches. Reaching them is the work.
