"Performance based executive search- reduced risk, increased results."

Having identified the shortcomings of traditional retained search firms, namely costly up-front investment with no guarantee of timely success, Hobson Associates has customized our retained search process specifically around our client's needs. We did so by creating "performance based executive search" which requires a percentage of the fee upon initiation of the search with the remainder due only upon successful completion. Our perspective is simple and straightforward. We give individual attention and top priority to each search until the search is successfully completed.

Hobson Associates executive search team is widely recognized as an indispensable resource in both executive search as well as key revenue driving or strategic hires that demand the same prioritized attention that the retained search provides. A majority of executive search firms will only take searches with compensation plans upwards of $100,000 but we realize that there are other critical searches the require guaranteed results. In response to that need, Hobson Associates pioneered the "contract retainer", allowing for an initial investment from our clients while we simultaneously conduct multiple searches. This has proven invaluable to a number of high-growth organizations that can't afford to leave these critical hires to chance.

The bottom line is no two companies are identical and neither are their search criteria. Hobson Associates realizes that and has created viable alternatives to traditional retained search that give our clients the flexibility and guarantee of performance that they need. We consistently leverage our knowledge, extensive executive networks and niche expertise to the fullest extent possible. The results are tangible- superior candidates who when hired, have immediate impact on your company today and will become invaluable to your future.
