Retained Search

Meeting Your Specific Needs

Hammerhouse teams may be retained for the purpose of enhancing specific efforts around your targeted infilling or expansion goals. We approach the retained search as an exclusive project undertaken on behalf of a client based on the objective. We have two types of retained search services.

1. PODs (Professional & Organized Detachment) are retained to impact infilling and expansion efforts in support of a single leader/client closer.
2. Executive and Production Leadership Retained Services are traditional retained arrangements for filling mission critical leadership positions.

 
POD Retained Option
In retaining Hammerhouse, the client “acquires” our time and resources specifically and exclusively. These resources come in the form of a Hammerhouse POD dedicated to a targeted market. A Hammerhouse POD consists of an Account Manager (Vice President), Recruiter (Strategic Growth Partner) and Recruiting Coordinator.
