Talent Acquisition, built around Leadership
Executive Search, Talent Acquisition for Startups, Growth and Enterprise Companies
Talent Acquisition | Leadership Advisory
Three disciplines. One point of accountability.
Most firms specialize in filling roles or advising leaders — rarely both, and rarely with the same partner across the relationship. Grad Axis was built the other way round.
End-to-end search for C-suite and VP-level seats, run confidentially from scoping to close.
CXO & Leadership Hiring
Team Buildout
Sequenced hiring to stand up an entire function or first leadership layer as one mandate.
Leadership Coach
One-on-one coaching for managers stepping into bigger roles — because a placement that isn't supported through the transition is only half a solution
What we do
The right talent takes more than a search.
We combine intelligent technology with human insights to find talent that truly drives impact. Together, our AI agents and expert recruiters understand your preferences and deliver exceptional candidates faster & better.
Built for companies hiring, and for the leaders they hire.
TWO SIDES OF EVERY MANDATE
Every search has two clients. We run a dedicated track for each.
FOR COMPANIES
Hiring Leadership
CXO hiring, team buildout and leadership coaching - on retainer, fractional or contingency terms matched to your mandate.
FOR CANDIDATES
Making a move
Confidential representation for leaders considering their next seat, plus coaching support once you're in it.
Scope
Define the mandate against your business reality-remit, reporting line and the outcome the seat owns.
01
Every mandate moves through the same four stages.
02
Search
Confidential mapping of the relevant market and direct outreach to leaders who aren't actively looking.
03
Place
04
Assess
Structured evaluation against the mandate - capability, track record, and fit with the room.
Offer strategy, negotiation, and a coached transition into the first quarter.
HOW WE WORK
The engagement model changes pace and exclusivity. It doesn't change the sequence.
Tell us about the seat
or the move
you're working on.
We'll point you to the right track before we point you to anyone else.
