FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01How much does it cost?

Headhunting is 18% of the hired candidate’s annual gross salary. Executive Search is 22–25%, paid in three parts. Market Mapping starts at €2,500. The minimum fee is €3,000, and all amounts exclude VAT.

02Do we pay if we don’t hire anyone?

Not for Headhunting: you pay only when a contract is signed. For Executive Search, the first two instalments fall due when the Order is signed and when the shortlist is presented, so they pay for the search work itself; the third falls due on the hire. That’s why we only take on mandates we’re confident we can deliver.

03What if the person leaves?

If they leave, or you part ways, within 3 months (Headhunting) or 6 months (Executive Search), we find a replacement at no new fee.
