Recruitment services built around how risk should sit
Three models, honestly scoped. Contingency when the market is deep. Retained when the role is critical or confidential. Embedded when you are hiring at volume. We tell you at intake which one your search actually needs.
Contingency recruitment
Linkrs Search.
Linkrs Search is our contingency model: we carry the risk until the right person signs. Built for specialist and senior roles where the market is deep enough to move fast — and where you want certainty about what you pay for.
- Fee model
- Success fee only — no cure, no pay
- First candidates
- Typically 1–2 weeks
- Safety net
- Guarantee period on placement
When this is your model
- The role is a recognized specialist profile with a real (if tight) candidate market
- The vacancy is public — no confidentiality constraints
- You want risk with us: no result, no fee
Retained & confidential executive search
Linkrs Mandate.
Linkrs Mandate is our retained model: exclusive, partner-led, and built for the hires where a wrong choice — or a leak — costs far more than the search. Leadership roles, scarce senior expertise, and searches that must stay invisible.
- Fee model
- Retained, in milestones
- First candidates
- Mapped shortlist in 4–6 weeks
- Safety net
- Replacement guarantee
When this is your model
- Leadership or key-function roles where the cost of a wrong hire is structural
- Confidential searches — replacements, pre-announcement builds, market entry
- Profiles so scarce that only a mapped, exhaustive search is credible
Embedded recruitment
Linkrs Embedded.
Linkrs Embedded puts our market access inside your process. A dedicated recruiter — backed by both partners and the wider network — works as an extension of your team for a defined period, under your brand, at a predictable monthly fee.
- Fee model
- Fixed monthly fee
- First candidates
- Continuous pipeline
- Safety net
- Full pipeline handover, no lock-in
When this is your model
- Multiple hires in the same discipline within 6–12 months
- Per-placement fees would be irrational at your volume
- You want FS & insurance market expertise inside your process, not bolted on at the end
