“I need to fill a senior role and nobody can know about it”

Headhunting for executives and key profiles

We find and approach professionals directly, including passive candidates, to fill specialised, strategic or hard-to-fill positions.

This is for you if…

  • You're looking for an executive or a strategic profile for your company.
  • The role is still filled or the change hasn't been announced, and you need discretion.
  • The profile is hard to find and a published job ad won't attract it.
  • The candidates you want are in work and not looking at job ads.

What we see from the other side of the table

A good executive is rarely browsing job ads. What gets them to move isn't an advert: it's a project that fits where they are in their career, presented by someone they trust.

Our job is to have that conversation with sound judgement and without exposing your company. And if the role can't be left empty in the meantime, an interim executive can cover it.

Frequently asked questions about headhunting

What's the difference between headhunting and recruitment?

In recruitment, we identify and assess candidates for specific positions. In headhunting, we go directly after professionals, including those who aren't job hunting, for specialised, strategic or hard-to-fill roles.

How do you guarantee confidentiality?

We are the ones who contact candidates, and we don't reveal your company's name until it makes sense for both sides.

What about nethunting?

It's one of the ways we locate those professionals: professional networks, digital channels and specialised tools. In headhunting we combine it with the direct approach. More on nethunting.

How much does a headhunter cost?

It depends on the role and how complex the search is. We'll explain it clearly in the meeting, before we start.

Not quite what you need?

These are our other services. If you're unsure, we'll work it out together in the meeting.

Recruitment

We identify, assess and present professionals who fit each company's needs, culture and goals, to fill specific positions.

Recommended if you need to fill one or more specific positions and want assessed candidates, not a pile of CVs.

See recruitment

Nethunting

We use professional networks, digital channels and specialised search tools to identify and locate talent that could fit a given position.

Recommended if the profile doesn't show up on job portals: technical, digital or highly specialised.

See nethunting

Services outsourcing

We outsource functions or services for your company, providing specialised professionals who carry them out on behalf of Crearte Consulting.

Recommended if you want a function covered (admin, accounting, customer service…) without adding headcount.

See services outsourcing

Interim management

We provide companies with highly experienced executives and professionals to lead projects, transformations or periods of change for a set period of time.

Recommended if you need someone in charge now, for a few months or up to around two years.
